About the Book

Murderous scones, meddling village grannies, and a kitty with a talent for mischief… Gemma ditches her corporate job to return to Oxford and open a traditional English tearoom — only to discover that life in an English village has never been so deliciously deadly!
Book 7 — Another One Bites the Crust
“They say revenge is a dish best served cold… a good thing to remember when you’re planning to murder a chef.”
Champagne and ball gowns, fairy lights and music… Oxford summer balls are one of the highlights of the calendar, and tearoom sleuth Gemma Rose is looking forward to slipping into something gorgeous for the evening. But when the night ends with a celebrity chef murdered by his own whisk, Gemma is plunged into a new mystery — with the nosy Old Biddies keen to help! Between fighting claims that she’s serving “fake” custard tarts and stopping her little tabby Muesli from being catnapped, she has her hands full. With so much going on, can she solve the case and live to bake another day?
Book 8 — Apple Strudel Alibi
“Someone once said that the world is a book, and those who do not travel read only one page… And yet it’s funny how — no matter where I go — my book always ends up being a murder mystery!”
When Gemma’s romantic holiday is cancelled, the tearoom sleuth finds herself heading to Vienna instead, with her cat Muesli and the nosy Old Biddies for company. It’s not long before they stumble across a murder in the heart of Austria’s historic capital, when a handsome art critic dies suspiciously at their hotel — and the Old Biddies are determined to sniff out the killer. Soon Gemma is dragged into an impromptu investigation that has her tackling Vienna’s famous pastries, snooping in police files and even braving a nude sauna in search of clues! But can she sort the suspects from the Schnitzel before the killer strikes again?
Book 9 — The Dough Must Go On
“They say that showbiz is a cut-throat business and I got a front-row seat to what that means when I was invited onto Britain’s hot new talent show.”
Showbiz comes to Oxford in the form of Britain’s hottest new talent show, and tearoom owner Gemma Rose gets a peek behind the scenes when she’s asked to cater for the event. But with the Old Biddies entering the contest as England’s first “granny band”, and her little tabby Muesli taking part in one of the acts, Gemma ends up with more than she bargained for… and that’s before she comes across a frozen dead body! Now she’s on the trail of a murderer, and with things hotting up in the contest and so many suspects in the running, can Gemma catch the killer before the curtain falls?
