Constable Evans may be overlooked by the police force as "just a village bobbie" - (He can't even carry a gun) - but they greatly underestimate his abilities. Evan Evans should be a valued member of the CID, but he is finding it difficult to decide between becoming a detective or continuing to serve tiny Llanfair. Evans loves the mountains and his small village, and his quick wits save them from further arson and murder. I had a great time ⬇️

mabell tagging along on his investigation. And I thoroughly enjoyed the Glamorgan Sausages and Welsh Rarebit I had in the Red Dragon! Yum!! (Recipes to be posted on blog) #BackpackEurope #WhimsicalTour 6y

JenP Looks good! 6y

mabell @JenP Thanks! Both were really good! Funnily enough, Glamorgan sausages do not contain sausage. 😄 6y

I'm taking my time in Wales - climbing Glyder Fawr, hanging out at the Red Dragon, sampling the cuisine at the new French restaurant, Chez Yvette. Unfortunately, someone is trying to spoil the tranquility by setting fire to foreigners' property. I'm trying to help Constable Evans discover who is responsible. Additional motivation? I'm a foreigner. 😳

mabell @Andrew65 I'm really enjoying the story so far. I'd never heard of the series until I sought out books set in Wales! 6y

Andrew65 @mabell I keep hearing positive things but yet to lay my hand on the books. 6y

JenP I am loving all your posts for this challenge. So fun! 6y

mabell @Andrew65 I think they are less common than the Royal Spyness books. I was able to get this one from the library. 6y

mabell @JenP Thank you! I'm enjoying the challenge immensely! 6y

My first day in Wales, and I am trying to get the hang of the beautiful language! Fortunately, everyone also speaks English, or I would be very lost! 😳 Hopefully, I will be able to learn a few words before I leave! ❤️

so-so

I love the Welsh countryside. If it wasn‘t for the weather I wouldn‘t mind living there. I think a remote village with few people would be the right place for me! Bowen‘s books are great, but this one was so-so, 3-/5. Will continue reading the series though. Love the setting and the quirky characters. The plot wasn‘t anything special this time, and life in Llanfair didn‘t move on the way I‘d expected it to.
