Review: 

This was a fantastic cosy crime read. I love a good murder mystery but what I really enjoyed about this book was that it was more than that. As well as the expected (given the title) body on the roundabout there was also separate mysteries including a beautifully sentimental one which I really wasn’t expecting. 

I really liked the main character - seeing home grown through the book was wonderful and I really was cheering him on  - he deserves to find happiness. 

I also really enjoyed the other main characters in the book - especially Hattie and Cassandra. 

I would love to read more from this author.
