Brenda Quinn's cat has gone missing, and who better to find him that the village's own Green Fingered Sleuth, retired vicar Cedric Malleson. After an initial meeting with Brenda, Cedric and his trust sidekick and friend, Tanya, discover there is more to Brenda's cat's disappearance than meets the eye.
But what is the link between a missing cat, a missing person, an elderly gentleman falling down the stairs and then, the disappearance of Reubens, Cedric's own cat? To take Cedric's mind off missing cats, his daughter, Scarlett, arranges for him to take ownership of an allotment, where she can develop her father's YouTube career into vegetable growing and the organic lifestyle. However, Cedric soon finds out that allotment life isn't so much of a relaxing enterprise as he thought, when he finds himself in the midst of a deadly plot.
