The Derbyshire villages of Draycott and Church Wilne have dozed quietly beside the left bank of
the Derwent for more than a thousand years, barely registering a mention even in the history of the
area. But have things really been as quiet as that? What about the case of the dodgy 18th-century
vicar? The flying corpse? The combustible cricketer? And more disastrous, but unexplained,
fires than you could shake a stick at.

No, things are definitely not as quiet as they seem down by the Derwent…

And anyway, why are the local inhabitants known as ‘Neddies’?

NOTE: THIS VERSION OF THE BOOK CONTAINS NO PHOTOS OR MAPS, AS I CAN'T PERSUADE THE SOFTWARE TO DISPLAY THEM CORRECTLY. RG
