The Idyllic life in Eden, Devon County, home of Spig and Molly O'Leary, is suddenly menaced by the spectre of a long-forgotten death, the grim reality of imminent murder and the march of 'progress' in the form of a new bridge, a super highway and a real estate boom—complete with rumors that their neighbors are planning to sell part of their land to a gambling syndicate.

The back cover of the copy of this I have is a "passage" that just straight up never happens, very fun to have completely fake spoilers as the advertising. This was decent, the last act becomes a little bit hard to follow with Spig going between four locations about 14 times in as many pages but it is an engaging read with good characters. Wasn't super interested in the main mystery but liked the main conflict.
