By: Andy Nichols

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Welcome to THE DOVEDALE DECEPTION — the gripping new installment in The Flour Power Mysteries, where the breathtaking beauty of the Derbyshire Peak District hides a chilling web of lies, corruption, and murder.

Perfect for fans of British cozy mysteries, culinary crime fiction, village whodunits, amateur sleuth mysteries, food fraud thrillers, and atmospheric English countryside suspense, this unforgettable mystery combines stunning natural landscapes with dark secrets buried beneath the surface.

When investigator Olivia Baker arrives in the idyllic Peak District to uncover suspicious irregularities in locally sourced produce, she expects paperwork problems, missing invoices, and dishonest suppliers.

What she uncovers instead is something far more sinister.

A sophisticated food fraud operation has been hiding in plain sight for years — a carefully constructed deception involving false farm provenance, forged supply chains, fake authenticity claims, and products falsely marketed as locally sourced Derbyshire produce.

The farms are real.

The labels are real.

But the truth hidden between them could destroy lives.

As Olivia digs deeper into the mystery surrounding seven Derbyshire farms, she discovers a dangerous network of greed, manipulation, and silence stretching beneath the postcard-perfect surface of village life. Everyone in Dovedale appears charming. Everyone has something to protect.

And someone is willing to kill to keep the deception buried.

Set against the haunting beauty of the River Dove and the iconic Dovedale stepping stones, THE DOVEDALE DECEPTION delivers everything readers love about bestselling British mystery fiction:

The River Dove does not care about innocence.

The valley keeps its secrets well.

And Olivia Baker is about to uncover a truth someone has spent years hiding.
