The calm at Audley Castle shatters when Bluebell Brewster, a brilliant but sharp-tongued restorer, is found dead inside the castle’s supposedly haunted turret. The evidence says murder. The castle whispers say ghost. Holly says something’s definitely off.
Bluebell clashed with almost everyone on the restoration team, but suspicion falls squarely on mild-mannered Herbert, a man so gentle Holly can’t picture him harming a cupcake, let alone a colleague.
Determined to uncover the truth, Holly teams up with Campbell, the castle’s head of security. Between questioning jumpy restorers, limping on an injured ankle, and wondering why Princess Alice is ignoring her, Holly has her hands full. And the deeper she digs, the more she uncovers a mess of jealousy, buried secrets, grudges, and motives stickier than a lemon drizzle glaze.
With Meatball the corgi by her side and danger rising, Holly has to solve the case before the killer strikes again. And this time, the surprise waiting for her is more shocking than the murder.
***
Perfect for fans of crime mysteries, English village whodunits, laugh-out-loud moments, and twisty clues.
Recipe included.

K.E. O'Connor is the author of the Witch Haven mystery series, the Crypt Witch cozy mysteries, the Lorna Shadow ghost mysteries, the Holly Holmes baking mysteries, the Zee Town paranormal cozy series, and the Old Sarum mystery series, along with other titles available if you cast the right spell. She can imagine dragons, taste cookies when they aren't even there, and hear the crack of a witch's broom at a hundred paces. K.E. (the K stands for Karen) lives in the United Kingdom (it isn't very united, but that's a mystery for another time) among the mystical stones and fairy creatures of Somerset. She graduated from the Universities of Southampton and Reading, where she received degrees in Archaeology and Cognitive Evolution (both highly entertaining to take part in, but with the career options of a ground witch's toe bone.) If you're of the curious persuasion and want to know more, visit her website at www.keoconnor.com for enlightening knowledge on all things cozy mystery, book news, and a peek into the magical world of a writer who believes animals talk and magic is just a finger click away. To contact her, visit her Facebook page - www.facebook/keoconnorauthor, join her email list, or dust off that haunted mirror in your cellar and speak the ancient magical words to transport yourself into her lounge. There may be tea and cookies waiting, or there may be giants - it depends on her mood.

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. In the idyllic setting of Audley Castle, mystery always seems to be around the corner. I'm so excited A team of restorers is working in the (allegedly) haunted turret of Audley Castle, restoring a beautiful ceiling painting. Unable to resist a look, I soon make friends with the restorers over our shared love of history. Well, most of them. Bluebell Brewster is whip-smart, sharp-tongued, and takes no prisoners. And she wants nothing to do with me or my delicious food. Then she's found dead, and the evidence reveals this was no accident. I'm on the case, alongside the head of castle security, Campbell. All evidence points to the mild-mannered project supervisor, Herbert, but there's something wrong with this picture. Murder is always messy, and Herbert doesn't fit the mold of a ruthless killer. He's more a soft, wobbly, Jell-O type of guy. I must hunt for clues and quiz suspects while dealing with an ankle injury, and Princess Alice snubbing me. How will I solve this crime when I don't have my trusty ally by my side? ***Expect surprises, twists, delicious cake, and a killer who gets his (or her) just desserts. Plus, there's a big surprise for Holly. Her life is about to change forever.If you enjoyed this book, there are seven more waiting for you.Suggested reading order: Cream Caramel and MurderChocolate Swirls and MurderVanilla Whip and MurderCherry Cream and MurderBlueberry Blast and MurderMocha Cream and MurderLemon Drizzle and MurderMaple Glaze and Murder.
