A fun and frivolous mystery about Constable Evan Evans. It is nice to take little vacation in Wales.

Constable Evans is a happy village policeman surrounded by an interesting array of characters, among them Evans the Meat, Evans the Post, tourists, competing love interests, and of course a murderer. The mystery begins when an amateur archaeologist stumbles upon what might be the tomb of King Arthur and then has his head bashed in on his way home from the pub. The mystery leads the reader all through the little Welsh village and then some leads go all the way to London.
The book invokes a well established sense of place. I love the Welsh mountain village setting. The characters are well developed and engaging. I will definitely read more in this series.
