And the closer Tabitha gets, the harder it is to walk away unscathed. ******** This City is Ours fanfiction (set in 2017, before the events of the show take place) Michael Kavanagh x Female OC Updates on Wednesdays and Fridays!

Agatha Innes has traded the frantic pace of the Met for the supposedly doddle of a post as Detective Inspector in the idyllic tri-county area of Abernathy, Fleckney, and Darnley - but between a history of surreal poisonings and professional assassins, Fleckney is not at all what it says on the tin. When a suspicious death occurs at the ultra-posh Serpent's Nest restaurant, Agatha is thrust into a world of two-star Michelin menus, groundbreaking pharmacological research, and local power dynamics. The victim, the head of the prominent Fitzroy family, is found face-down in his lunch with a chillingly permanent smile. As Agatha navigates the investigation, she must contend with uncooperative celebrity chefs, devilishly charming lawyers, and eccentric herpetologists. Yet, beyond the crime scene, a larger question looms: why is this specific patch of the English countryside populated by such preposterously handsome men - and why do three of them seem so intent on getting her undivided attention? Solving the murder at Serpent's Nest might be the first step in uncovering the broader, quirkier mystery of Fleckney itself.
