"You're a librarian, not a detective," Catherine Penny's daughter reminds her. But Catherine, suddenly single in her sixties, finds it easy to slip into sleuthing mode when she leaves behind New York City and a failed marriage for a lovely 17th century cottage in the idyllic English village of Far Wychwood.

But behind the town's quaint stone walls and lace-curtained windows lurk dark secrets and whispers of witchcraft. And when her crusty neighbor George Crocker dies in a tragic fire, Catherine alone suspects arson. Lacking hard evidence, the police pay little attention, and the villagers swear she must be mistaken. Catherine, however, is one feisty expatriate American who leaves no stone unturned when circumstances point to murder. She may not be Miss Marple--yet--but her ingenious knack for uncovering the truth is about to take Far Wychwood by storm!.

This map of Scandinavia was prepared by the last Catholic arch bishop of Sweden, Olaus Magnus (1490-1558). It was originally published as a wall map printed on eight folio size sheets in Venice in 1539. The map gives an abundant inventory of the settlement, means of livelihood, fauna and other riches of the Nordic countries. The map spreads from the Northern Atlantic to western parts of Russia and from Northern Germany to the Arctic Ocean. As proved by the charts Olaus Magnus had used, Greenland and Northern Scandinavia are now separated. Map is reproduced by Wychwood Editions..
