Photo Diary for Death in an English Cottage

by | Dec 11, 2014

 

I was lucky enough to visit Derbyshire while researching the Murder on Location books.

The second book in the series, DEATH IN AN ENGLISH COTTAGE, takes place in the quaint (yet imaginary) village of Nether Woodsmoor.

Here’s some pictures I took of places that inspired me:
