Synopsis of A Bitter Feast<\/h5>\n

In a Bitter Feast, Scotland Yard DS Duncan Kincaid and his wife, DI Gemma James<\/a>, have been invited for a relaxing weekend in the tranquil Cotswolds.<\/p>\n

It is one of Britain\u2019s most beautiful and historic regions, famous for its rolling hills, sheep-strewn green meadows, golden cottages, and timeless villages that retain the spirit of old England.<\/p>\n

Duncan, Gemma, and their children are guests at Beck House, the country estate belonging to the family of Melody Talbot, Gemma\u2019s trusted detective sergeant.<\/p>\n

No ordinary farmers, the Talbots are wealthy and prominent with ties to Britain\u2019s most powerful and influential.<\/p>\n

A centerpiece of this glorious fall getaway is a posh charity luncheon catered by up-and-coming chef Viv Holland.<\/p>\n

After more than a decade in London, Viv has returned to her native Glouscestershire, making a name for herself with her innovative, mouthwatering use of the local bounty.<\/p>\n

Attended by several dozen of the area\u2019s well-to-do, as well as national food bloggers and restaurant critics, the event could make Viv a star.<\/p>\n

—-<\/h6>\n

But a tragic car accident followed by a series of mysterious deaths could ruin her ascent.<\/p>\n

Each piece of information that surfaces makes it clear that the killer had a connection with Viv\u2019s pub\u2014and perhaps with Beck House itself.<\/p>\n

Does the truth lie in the past?<\/p>\n

Or is it more immediate, woven into the tangled relationships and bitter resentments swirling among the staff at Beck House and at Viv\u2019s pub?<\/p>\n

Or is it even more personal, entwined with secrets hidden by Viv, her business partner Bea Abbot, and Viv\u2019s eleven-year-old daughter Grace?<\/p>\n

Further revelations rock the Talbots\u2019 estate and pull Duncan and Gemma and their colleagues into the investigation.<\/p>\n

With so much at stake both personally and professionally, especially for Melody Talbot, finding the killer becomes one of the team\u2019s most crucial cases.<\/p>\n
