Great Escapes Book Tours Book Reviews: A Scone To Die For




(Oxford Tearoom Mysteries ~ Book 1)
Genre – Cozy Mystery
Self-Published
• Number of Pages: 360

Synopsis:

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?
*Traditional English scone recipe included!
 Review: I actually read another book with the same name a few years back. I like this one much better. I have to draw some comparisons between the two books of the same name. This one is less pretentious, though both dealt with murder in a tea room.

I like my cozies to be light hearted and this one was just that. And the cover is oh so very cute.

Loved it!
