Fire in the Thatch by E.C.R. Lorac
5.0

MS Lorac mysteries are always delightful. This a wonderful mystery, a hidden gem of the Golden Age.
A very unusual plot that drives us to understand if there was a crime or not.
There are lovely and well written characters, an enchanted settings and the WWII in the background.
The cultural clash between the country dwellers and the outsiders is described in such a current way that makes you cringe.
A great read that is highly recommended.
Many thanks to Poisoned Pen Press and Netgalley for this ARC
