Evans Above Summary

Evans Above by Rhys Bowen

THE FIRST CONSTABLE EVANS MYSTERY!

Constable Evan Evans expected the idyllic Welsh village of Llanfair to be a calm oasis far away from the violent crime of the big city-until a string of murders puts every charming eccentric under suspicion...

Little Llanfair has its share of characters-two ministers vying for the souls of their flock, one lascivious barmaid, and three other Evanses: Evans-the-Meat, Evans-the-Milk, and Evans-the-Post.

But before Evan-now knows as Evans-the-Law-can enjoy Llanfair's tranquillity, he's called to the scene of a crime as brutal as any in the big city. Two hikers have been murdered on the trails of the local mountain, and now Evan must hunt down a vicious killer in a town where one of his lovable new neighbors could prove to be deadly...

Evans Above Reviews

Praise for Evans Above

Unique characterization and subtle humor.-Library Journal

Bowen perfectly captures the flavor of the fiercely nationalistic Welsh...we can't help but chuckle our way through this sweet-natured cozy.-San Francisco Examiner & Chronicle

The writing is tidy and straightforward. Llanfair, with its challenging mountain and well-drawn locals, is appealing, as is Constable Evans, a kind of Welsh version of M.C. Beaton's Hamish MacBeth.-Kirkus Reviews
