Mods Mire
A disgraced author's revived treasure-hunt book sends Mods Mire searching for clues shortly before its creator is murdered.

Casebook interpretation
Welcome to Mods Mire
Mods Mire is principally known through one case, making this a compact story-location file rather than a claim to a complete village history. Its recorded case material places it in the Casebook's dark territory.
Editorial interpretation Where the programme has not established a resident, building or piece of geography, the Casebook leaves it unstated rather than turning inference into canon.
