It is a lovely day at the fair... but someone thinks it is a lovely day for murder... Summer is in full swing in the picturesque Sussex countryside, and Maisie Cooper is bound for the annual Bitling Fair.

Maisie expects to enjoy homemade cakes, a glass of cider and a spot of Morris dancing. But what she doesn't bargain for is the tensions running high between the villagers of East Bitling and the disagreements being stirred up by the high and mighty Lady Catherine, from the big house on the hill. Is this nothing more than village politics? Or by the time the sun has set on the fair, will Maisie Cooper have another murder on her hands?
