Snake in the Grass

Snake in the Grass is the tenth book in the Mysteries of Cobble Hill Farm Series.

When Harriet Bailey's young cousins discover an unusual lizard wandering around Cobble Hill Farm, she is stunned to learn that the reptile is not only endangered, but originates from the Caribbean. So how did it end up in White Church Bay? Exotic-animal veterinarian Dr. Jason Peel and private Zoo owner Victoria Langford tells her that animal smuggling is a big problem in Britain and that their new lizard friend, Mango, may be the latest case. When more non-native creatures begin to pop up left and right, Harriet has to wonder if someone in White Church Bay is behind it all.

Meanwhile, Victoria's long-lost brother, Nick, arrives at Moorland Zoo. Twenty years ago, Nick vanished in a boating accident and was presumed dead. Now he claims he wants to explain his absence and reconnect with his family, but the timing is certainly suspicious. Is there an ulterior motive behind Nick's reappearance?

Mysteries of Cobble Hill Farm brings you everything you want in a great cozy mystery: page-turning plots, hidden secrets from the past, faith-filled characters, clean, wholesome stories, and the heartwarming, fun antics of animals with a knack for sniffing out—and digging up—clues!

When veterinarian Harriet Bailey’s grandfather passes away, she accepts his bequest and follows her heart—with God’s gentle guidance—across the ocean to the charming town of White Church Bay in Yorkshire, England. Old Doc Bailey left Harriet not only a sprawling historic estate but also the Cobble Hill Farm Vet Clinic in the hope that she would continue his legacy. You’ll be captivated, just like Harriet, as she takes long walks along country paths, marvels at the gardens surrounding each cottage, and wanders through the ruins of old stone castles. Through the caring locals she meets and the precious animals in her care, she confirms that she is right where she belongs—especially when people and pets alike bring her mysteries from today and yesterday to solve!
