Perfect for you if...

  • You enjoy cosy mysteries with amateur sleuths who aren't professional detectives but are clever enough to outsmart the actual investigation.
  • You like small-town settings where everyone has secrets and the picturesque facade hides genuine danger.
  • You appreciate a book with warmth and character alongside the mystery, especially when it features a bookshop or café as its heart.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You need high-stakes action or graphic violence to stay engaged.
  • You prefer mysteries where the detective is a trained professional with formal authority.
  • You find amateur investigators making dangerous choices frustrating rather than compelling.

About this book

When a craft fair turns deadly, Gemma and Mavis investigate a local man's murder and uncover hidden secrets in their small town. In Belper, Derbyshire, Gemma owns the Bookworm bookshop and café. She and her assistant Mavis are exhibiting books at the town's annual fair when the body of a local man is discovered in the church. A man is arrested, and the evidence against him appears strong, but Gemma and Mavis believe he is innocent. They set out to clear his name and find the real killer. As their investigation deepens, they discover startling secrets beneath the town's peaceful surface. Racing against time, they must uncover the truth while treading carefully. Their pursuit of justice raises questions about how far they will go and whether their investigation will put them in danger. This is the sequel to A Bitter Pill in the Bookshop Mysteries series.
