A murder mystery served with scones

An English tearoom becomes the unlikely center of a murder investigation when an American tourist is killed with a scone. Gemma’s knowledge of Oxford University gives her a starting point as she investigates secrets from the past, with a group of inquisitive local women and the tabby cat Muesli alongside her. The case also presses on her working life: customers grow wary, and the tearoom’s business is at risk. Family matchmaking and the arrival of an old college flame, now the detective leading the inquiry, add complications to Gemma’s efforts. This large-print edition includes a traditional English scone recipe at the end.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Fans of amateur-sleuth mysteries set in England
  • Readers who enjoy cozy mystery ingredients such as a tearoom, a cat, and a local group of helpers
  • Those seeking a large-print edition with a bonus recipe

Book overview

When an American tourist is murdered with a scone in her quaint English tearoom, Gemma must solve the mystery with the help of the nosy Old Biddies and a mischievous little tabby cat named Muesli.

Armed with her insider knowledge of Oxford University, she sets out to investigate and finds herself apron-deep in a case involving long-buried secrets from the past. But between her bossy, matchmaking mother and the return of her old college flame as the handsome CID detective leading the investigation, Gemma soon has her hands full and her head spinning... and that's before her tearoom ends up in the papers for all the wrong reasons!

Murder is bad for business, especially when customers think your scones are more deadly than delicious. With the body count rising and her tearoom going bust, can Gemma find the killer before things turn to custard?

**Traditional English scone recipe at the end of the story!**
