Miri's Inheritance — Sue Perkins

Miri's life is a disaster but an unexpected inheritance from a grandmother she's never met, gives her hope for the future.
Gavin, the solicitor's clerk, helps her settle into her grandmother's cottage and assists her to negotiate the.legal aspects of the inheritance.

The isolated village has several cottages, but none of the neighbours are friendly. One unknown person repeatedly breaks in and searches Miri's new home.

Who is this strange person and what does he or she want? Can she count on Gavin to protect her now his official duties are over?
