Nurse Kate Palmer is Cornwall's answer to Miss Marple! But when a body turns up in her own garden can Kate solve the crime? Or is the murder a bit too close to home?

Kate Palmer is stunned when she wakes up one morning to discover the body of a man in the beautiful garden of Lavender Cottage. She's spent the last few years renovating her cozy, clifftop cottage with its gorgeous views of the sparkling Cornish sea. And a death right under her nose is more than a little unsettling...


When Woody Forrest, Kate's new husband and the village's retired detective inspector, takes a closer look he realises the victim is none other than Frank Ford - Woody's old nemesis. Now, Frank is lying dead amongst the daisies... strangled with Woody's blue police tie.


Kate is certain the man she loves is not a murderer and is determined to prove his innocence. But who would want to kill Frank and frame Woody? As Kate investigates, Frank's family seem to be the obvious suspects. Could it be Jason Ford, the youngest son, who has an odd obsession with birdwatching? Sid Kinsella, the angry father-in-law? Or Sharon Mason, the troublesome daughter?


When another member of the Ford family bites the dust while Woody is tending his allotment, it's clear the killer is determined to bury Woody's reputation. But when a chance conversation on Bluebell Road provides Kate with a clue, she must find a woman named Rose, who could hold the answers Kate needs


Kate needs to dig up the truth - and fast! - before poor Woody is thrown behind bars. Can she solve the case and save her husband before it's too late?


If you love murder mysteries with a brilliant cast of characters, twisty plots and plenty of cake, A Body at the Tea Rooms will have you hooked until the very last page! Perfect for fans of Agatha Christie, Faith Martin and Joy Ellis.
