520			_aWestleham Village 1947. With the war finally over the residents of Westleham village are trying to reclaim a sense of normality and the upcoming village show is proving to be a popular event! Newcomer, Martha Miller, has high hopes for the village show. Since her husband Stan left for work one day and never returned, some of the villagers have treated Martha with suspicion - why would a good man like Stan simply up and leave? Was it something Martha did? All Martha knows is that she's hoping that she can win people over and hopefully they'll buy her delicious homemade plum gin, too and she'll be able to make ends meet. But as glasses of Martha's gin are passed around, disaster strikes. Alice Warren, Chairwoman of the village show slumps to the ground after taking a sip. It's clear she's been poisoned! Martha is shocked, but not surprised, when fingers of suspicion once again point her way. Determined to prove her innocence, Martha sets about trying to find the real culprit. But who would kill Alice and why? Ably helped by the new vicar, Luke Walker, Martha quickly tries to get to the bottom of this mystery. But with the villagers closing ranks it quickly becomes apparent that the only person with a motive is Martha herself... Will Luke and Martha discover who is behind the poisoning before it's too late?
