For twenty-six years Major Gerald Stroud has lit the Thornwick fire on the village green — the hero of a long-ago oast-house blaze, his name in oak-leaf brass on the church wall. This year, with his torch in his hand and the rockets going up, he drops dead at the fire's edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe village calls it his heart. Bea Hawthorne, botanist and keeper of the Willow \u0026amp; Thyme tearoom, heard the wrong symptoms: a numb mouth, a racing pulse — a plant, not a heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut the death on the green is only the second wrong. The first is twenty-six years old and buried on the north side of the churchyard with no stone: a careful man blamed for a fire that was never his. As Bea follows a poisoned flask back through a drunk man's confession, a parish register, a widow's refused headstone and a child who grew up in plain sight, she finds the fifth of November was never a night of opportunity. It was an anniversary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd the truth she uncovers is one the law cannot touch — and the village cannot bear to hear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eA fair-play cozy mystery of buried names, kept promises, and what a village chooses to burn.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook 5 of The Thornwick Tea Shop Mysteries.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrefer a printed copy?
