Does amateur sleuth Kate have what it takes to get to the bottom of this extraordinary puzzle and save her sister at the same time? If you love murder mysteries with a brilliant cast of characters, twisty plots and plenty of cake, A Body at the Tea Rooms will have you hooked until the very last page! Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Faith Martin and Joy Ellis.
But who could have murdered a member of Lower Tinworthy\'s most enviable family? Was it the old gardener? The seemingly sweet cook? Or the bitter maid? Just as she inches closer to the truth, Angie goes missing.
They\'re hiding a long-buried family secret and plenty of people have a grudge against them, including a number of their ex-employees.
After quizzing the locals over copious cups of tea, Kate begins to realise the Hedgefields, who live in a grand mansion and own half the village, are not as perfect as they make out.
Not to mention the ridiculous rumour Angie is somehow involved! Keen to clear her sister\'s name so she can finally eat cake in the charming tea rooms, Kate teams up with handsome retired Detective \'Woody\' Forrest to untangle the baffling case.
Kate is reluctant to get caught up in the investigation but a curious card in the victim\'s jacket pocket sparks her interest.
If the village gossip is to be believed, the unfortunate man was connected to the wealthy Hedgefield family.
Instead she has another murder mystery to solve...
She was looking forward to clotted cream teas with a seaside view.
Kate Palmer is most disappointed when renovations at her sister Angie\'s new tea rooms are derailed after a Body is discovered in the cellar.
