The sound of female giggles led Caitlyn to the far side of the conservatory where the glazed double doors were thrown open to let in the warmth of the June evening. She found Pomona curled up in a wicker chaise longue next to the doors, her head tilted flirtatiously as she laughed and talked with a young man standing in the open doorway.
Caitlyn smiled inwardly: so much for being worried about Pomona’s state of mind. It looked like her cousin was fully recovered and back to her favourite hobby: flirting with any handsome male in the vicinity! She looked curiously at the young man talking to her cousin. He was dressed in faded jeans tucked into Wellington boots, and an old cotton shirt rolled up at the sleeves to show muscular forearms. He had the kind of striking good looks, coupled with jet black hair and bright blue eyes, which hinted at a Celtic ancestry, and this was confirmed when Caitlyn heard the Irish lilt in his voice.

When an American tourist is murdered with a scone in Gemma's quaint Cotswolds' tearoom, she suddenly finds herself apron-deep in a mystery involving sinister secrets from Oxford's past. Helped by four nosy 'Old Biddies' from the village (not to mention a mischievous feline named Muesli), Gemma sets out to solve the case - while also trying to deal with her matchmaking mother and the return of her old college love as handsome CID detective, Devlin O'Connor.
But with the body count rising and her business going bust, can Gemma find the killer before things turn to custard?
