Synopsis

Snow, secrets, an icy lady of the manor, a vile villain, open fires, and hidden love.

A frosty December and Bethan Griffiths has returned home for Christmas to unwrap secrets. It's the 1970s and she is back in the village of Foel in the Welsh hills to raise her daughter. They arrive to the open arms of her family and the community, but not all is what it seems and Beth isn't home for the reason she pretends either.

Vicious notes start appearing that reveal harsh truths about the village inhabitants, stirring up ancient past, old loves, and the dead. Not even local dignitary, the elegant and aloof Lady Melling who hides in her manor house, is safe from the accusations.

But when Beth receives her notes, they aren't what she expected. Is she being toyed with like the other villagers, or is she being guided to a long-sought truth?

The Tell Tale has been watching and waiting, because there's something queer about the village of Foel.

Author Bio

Clare Ashton is an award-winning indie author of lesbian fiction and f/f romances, with German translations of her work published by Ylva Publishing and Verlag Krug und Schadenberg.

Her dark romance After Mrs Hamilton is a Golden Crown Literary Society (Goldie) award winner, and her first foray into romantic comedy, That Certain Something, was a Goldie and Lambda Literary Award finalist. Light romance Poppy Jenkins won the Rainbow Award for Best Lesbian Contemporary & Erotic Romance.

Clare grew up in Mid-Wales and has a brain stuck somewhere not particularly useful between the arts and sciences. She has been accused of sometimes living too much inside her head, but it turns out that this is good for writing stories. She lives in the Midlands with her wife and son and daughter, who are a lovely distraction from writing.
