About this ebook

What happens when small-town murder meets a big-hearted café owner?

When a crime writer with a colourful past becomes the victim of a crime, the list of suspects is as long as one of her books...

Sadie Grey, prolific crime writer, fifty-something spinster, and former wild child, is threatening to write her memoirs.

Unfortunately, not everyone in the small town of St. Eves is as keen to see the result of her reminiscences as she is so, when she's found dead at the foot of her staircase, the list of likely suspects is a long one.

Who would stop at nothing to prevent Sadie's story from being published. And why?

As DI Nathan Costello and his team work to establish a motive and track down the killer, amateur sleuth Charlotte is busy juggling motherhood with working at her café. Thank goodness for old friend, Ava Whittington, who has taken on chief childminding duties for little Molly, with comical results.

As the investigation into Sadie's murder gathers pace, long-buried secrets are revealed, along with the shocking reason for the killer wanting to keep Sadie's story out of the public eye.

After all, the reputations of some of the town's most respected residents are at stake...

This is a clean, small-town, culinary cozy mystery with characters who'll stay with you long after you've finished reading, and a selection of recipes for you to try. It contains no graphic violence, language, sex, or cliffhangers. 

Fans of Agatha Frost and HY Hanna may like this book, written by mystery author Sherri Bryan using British English spelling and terminology.

About the author

Give me a cup of tea, a good book, and a comfortable chair, and I'm happy!

I grew up in the UK, never far away from an Enid Blyton or Roald Dahl book. These days, though, I live in Spain and read everything from women's fiction and romance to biographies and cookbooks to children's fiction and thrillers.

When I'm not scribbling down ideas for new stories, or tapping away on my laptop, you'll most likely find me with my nose in a book, or rustling up something experimental in the kitchen.

I currently have two series; The Charlotte Denver Cozy Mystery Series and The Bliss Bay Village Mystery Series. If you've read and enjoyed my books, and would like to receive an early notification of new releases, discounts and other book-related news, please sign up to my Readers' Group at https://sherribryan.com. Or you can follow me on BookBub.

Thank you, and happy reading!
