From the Publisher:
Charlie Leathers was not the most popular man in the charming English village of Ferne Basset, but few people seemed to hate him enough to murder him. Still, that was his fate one night, and it brings Inspector Barnaby to the scene to investigate. What Barnaby doesn't know is that before his death, Charlie witnessed what might have been the suicide -- or murder -- of a young woman whose troubles with the law have landed her in the home of a local retired minister and his none-too-pleased wife. Now a man is dead, a girl is missing, and a town is in chaos as long-kept secrets begin to unravel, with deadly repercussions.

Caroline Graham: A Place of Safety (UK 1999)

From the Publisher:
When ex-vicar Lionel Lawrence opens Wis ram- bling rectory to rehabilitate a stream of young offenders he has no idea of the consequences, least of all that they will include blackmail and murder. The mysterious disappearance of wild Carlotta, his most recent project, seems to involve both.

Chief Inspector Barnaby, on the other hand, has a shrewd idea of the identity of the violent individ- ual behind Carlotta's disappearance: one of Lionel's lame ducks who, with a prison record for terrible violence, is not the pathetic soul he would have others believe. But Barnaby hasn't a shred of evidence to support his hunch -- until a wrongheaded romantic theory from a local villager offers the lever he is looking for to prise open the truth.

TV's four-part MIDSOMER MURDERS was watched by over 40 million UK viewers, as well as being screened in twenty-four countries world- wide, bringing Chief Inspector Barnaby into the elite ranks of fiction's best-known detectives. A Place of Safety shows Barnaby at his most impressive, faced with a suspect he is convinced is the incarnation of evil, and a village full of secrets.
