“Winner Winner Chicken Dinner” by Sarah Jackson
Senior Constable Ivy Driscoll is experiencing an unexpected and unwanted tree change. Following the disastrous end to her affair with a Chief Inspector, she has been relegated to the rural police station of Donnywell. Although she is the granddaughter of Country Women’s Association royalty, Ivy is quintessentially a city girl, knowing nothing of domestic life, baking or rural daily life and goings on. She barely has time to unpack when thrust into her new life. Within a day of her arrival, Chester Winterbourne, the president of the district poultry club and his prize-winning rooster are brutally murdered. Disillusioned with the world, heartbroken and lacking in confidence, Ivy must solve the murders to prove herself fit for the job, win the hearts and minds of the locals, and hopefully get to know Paul, the dishy vet. With the city and her old life behind her, will this enforced fresh start be just what Ivy needs.
