When an American tourist is murdered with a scone in Gemma Rose’s quaint Oxfordshire tearoom, she suddenly finds herself apron-deep in a mystery involving long-buried secrets from Oxford’s past.Armed with her insider knowledge of the University and with the help of four nosy old ladies from the village (not to mention a cheeky little tabby cat named Muesli), Gemma sets out to solve the … mystery–all while dealing with her matchmaking mother and the return of her old college love, Devlin O’Connor, now a dashing CID detective.
But with the body count rising and her business going bust, can Gemma find the killer before things turn to custard?

Great read
Nice quick cozy read.
The girl was too emotional for me. I like just following the facts to find out who did it.
Loved it !
Easy fun read, with a lot of humor.
I received a free copy from the author for a review. A sweet cozy mystery with a few chuckles along the way. I enjoyed Gemma and the other characters. It came as a surprise who turned out to be the murderer. Will be reading more stories by H. Y. Hanna.
Really like this series.
An enjoyable whodunit that keeps you guessing until the end.
Fun read
Never saw it coming. Like a lot of Agatha Christy’s books you did not get all the clues so it made it hard to figure out.
Very entertaining
This was a slow reader for me. The prequel book for this series was a cute fun read so I had high hopes for this one and was kind of left wanting more.
Loved the involvement of the gray-hairs. It was a good read!
A fast paced welcome home for this lady! Smart and determined to see the right killer be found.The more she digs the darker it becomes.
The killer was a total surprise. I usually know who the killer is before the end.
Always fun stories, thought slightly predictable.
Loved everything about the book, can’t wait to hear more.
This author never disappoints.
Another cozy that plays out in typical fashion. The characters and plot are okay, but to me the location is the star attraction. Having spent time as a child in Oxford and the surrounding countryside, the sense of place brought many sweet memories.
Looking forward to more of this.
