⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ‘This one took my breath away . . . racing through at whirlwind pace. Love, love, love this series!’ Donna, Goodreads
A DELICIOUSLY QUIRKY COZY MYSTERY FULL OF TWISTS AND TURNS BY A BESTSELLING AUTHOR.
Meet Bea Abbot. Life in leafy Kensington should be all Georgian houses, beautiful parks and charming tea shops. But it turns out there are plenty of murders to solve for our amateur sleuth.
Bea can’t wait to have Bernice, her sparky teenage ward, home from boarding school for the summer. Little does she know, Bernice won’t be her only guest . . .
Bernice’s roommate, Evelina Trescott, turns up on their doorstep, along with her overbearing Aunt April.
Trouble has a way of following Evelina. And now her uncle is dead — in rather sinister circumstances.
Evelina was the one to find his body. But her medication gives her such a fuzzy head, she can hardly remember a thing about it. The poor dear . . .
Aunt April just needs a place to hide her, until the police have finished nosing round the Trescotts’ rambling country house.
Bea takes her in, no questions asked. But the longer Evelina stays, the more Bea realizes there is something horribly wrong with the troublesome Trescotts.
Is Evelina really a hapless victim, or is Bea harbouring a cold-blooded killer under her roof?
A charming cozy murder mystery packed with wit and intrigue. Fans of Richard Osman, M.C. Beaton, the Reverend Richard Coles and Jane Adams will love this unputdownable mystery.

ABOUT THE DETECTIVE
Sixty-something Bea Abbot is recently widowed and newly returned to London after taking an around-the-world trip with her late husband, Hamilton, one he never finished. Heartbroken but determined, she must decide what to do with her husband’s business. The Abbot Agency is an exclusive organisation which handles domestic crises such as house clearances, staff problems and entertaining. Bea is tempted to sell up and settle for a quiet life — a move urged upon her by her MP son Max and his socially ambitious wife Nicole. Bea can’t think of a better way to spend her sunset years, that is until she ends up investigating murders . . .
