Commander Sam Vimes is forced into a vacation by his wife, Lady Sybil, to take a holiday at her family’s mansion in a quiet rural landscape.

While there, however, Vimes’ city-entrained suspicions threaten to get the better of him until he discovers that he is, in fact, on the trail of a much bigger case.

Unravelling the truth of a goblin girl’s murder, Vimes discovers the dirty truth behind Lord Rust’s wealth – his capture and enslavement of the goblins to work in his tobacco fields to cheaply make his cigars.

Ripe with biting, laugh-out-loud wit, Pratchett delivers an intriguing and thoroughly engaging tale in his 39th novel in the Discworld series.

A terrific read, whether you’re new to the Discworld universe (like me) or not.
