The Tale of Briar Bank
Susan Wittig Albert
Near Sawrey, the seat of Miss Potter's country home, is
abuzzMr. Wickstead has died under a tree limb. The
villagers are certain that his death had to do with a
treasure he dug up last spring. But why was he in the wood
on a frigid night? And what of the claw marks on the limb?
And what was that treasure? As per usual, the town's animals
know more than the Big Folk. And only Pickles, Wickstead's
fox terrier, knows exactly what happened.
Meanwhile, Miss Potter wonders: can she acknowledge her
fondness for Mr. Heelis and remain loyal to the memory of
her fiancé? She has no time to muse, what with helping the
denizens of Sawrey, human and animaland the little
matter of murder.
