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.

It’s Saturday morning. And things at the Abbot Agency are perfectly peaceful. Until . . .

Bea’s former client, Magda, turns up in quite the fix. Her hand grips a brown leather briefcase, stuffed with diamonds.

They belong to her employer, Lucas Rycroft, the flighty younger brother of a local lord. He handed them to Magda before dashing off to the barber’s.

Now he’s vanished without a trace, leaving Magda with the diamonds — and a world of trouble she never bargained for.

Two of Lucas’s nephews are hot on her heels. And just like that, Bea finds herself drawn into the tangled affairs of the Rycroft family.

Is there anything Lucas’s scheming relatives won’t do to lay hands on the family jewels?

When a corpse is discovered in Magda’s bed, the mystery takes a lethal turn.

Can Bea and Magda catch the killer before anyone else dies?

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.
