Constable Evan Evans #5 in which the leader of a film crew staying at the Everest Inn is found murdered in an old slate mine. The crew is filming the raising of a WW II German bomber plane from a nearby lake, but a little digging reveals that Grantley Smith had plenty of enemies, both local and in the crew itself, among them an expert on old aircraft who just happens to be Bronwen's ex-husband! When DI Hughes partners the newly-promoted DC Glynis Davies to work with DS Watkins on the case, Evan is feeling decidedly left out. Of course we know he'll find the culprit in the end! This was a nice cozy visit with Evan, Bronwen, Mrs. Williams, Betsy, the dueling preacher's wives, the mountains, the sheep and the crew at the Red Dragon and was quite enjoyable!
