A man is shot in an isolated village in which the only person he knew was already dead. Was it an accident — or something more sinister?

Sergeant Cromwell was visiting a pretty Cheshire village to attend a funeral when he was shot through the head.

Littlejohn rushes to his side only to be told that the wound was inflicted by nothing more than a pop gun.

Who would want to harm a man in a village where no one knows him? Channelling his grief into motivation, Littlejohn is determined to find out.

Murder Makes Mistakes is the thirteenth title in Agora's Inspector Littlejohn Mysteries.
