bestselling series featuring Detective Matthew Venn  from author and creator of the Vera and
Shetland series  Ann Cleeves - soon to be a major TV series.  North Devon is enjoying a rare
hot summer with tourists flocking to its coast-line. Detective Matthew Venn is called out to a
rural crime scene at the home of a group of artists. What he finds is an elaborately staged
murder - Dr Nigel Yeo has been fatally stabbed. His daughter  Eve  is a glassblower  and the
murder weapon is a shard of one of her broken vases.  Dr Yeo seems an unlikely murder victim.
He's a good man  a public servant  beloved by his daughter. Matthew is unnerved though to find
that Eve is a close friend of Jonathan  his husband.  Then another body is found - killed in a
similar way. Matthew finds himself treading carefully through the lies that fester at the heart
of his community and a case that is dangerously close to home . . .  The Heron's Cry is the
