Tiffin & Tragedy: A British Female Amateur Sleuth Mystery (A Tea & Sympathy Mystery Book 3) Kindle Edition

by J. New (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.4 out of 5 stars 529 ratings

Meet Lilly Tweed. Former Agony Aunt. Purveyor of Fine Teas. Accidental Sleuth.

Invited to celebrate the wedding anniversary of two close friends, Lilly jumps at the chance. Not only is there to be a party, but as the family owns a luxury seaside bed-and-breakfast she’s looking forward to a well-earned break.

Unfortunately, nothing goes to plan. Beneath the happy, carefree exterior, lurk secrets and lies, and as the tension mounts somebody reaches breaking point.

The party ends in a tremendous storm which causes a power cut and fells trees across the only access road, and the inhabitants of The Palms find themselves trapped with no way to call for help. Then a body is discovered and Lilly realises the danger outside is nothing compared to within.

There is a murderer among them.

Tiffin & Tragedy is the third book in the exciting Tea & Sympathy series. If you like twists and turns, red herrings galore and big crimes in small British towns, then you’ll love J. New’s latest series. Full of lively personalities, intelligent characters and excellent tea!

Buy Tiffin & Tragedy today and see if you can work out whodunit!

    What happens when you put a extended family together at a party when a massive storm hits cutting power, phone lines down, no cell site and downing tress so your trapped and where one of the party is universally hated, why murder of course. That's the predictiment Lilly finds herself. Finding who the murderer is with a house full of suspects makes for a intriguing story. Enjoyed this book immensely.

    I love when I can’t guess who did it! Great setting, interesting characters. I love the descriptions of everything — my brain is filled with colorful high-drama images.

    A few spelling and grammatical errors but the story was so interesting that I barely noticed them.

    J. New writes some great mysteries…..full of twists and turns, adorable cats, TEA (I love tea), and mysteries to solve. Can you solve it before the end? She gives clues and no cliffhanger endings. Each *can* be a stand alone….but, start from the first so you get the backstory. Curl up in a comfy chair with a cup of tea and enjoy…I did!

    I wish that I could double the number of stars. I love the Yellow Cottage mysteries. This new series is seriously good too. This third book is unputdownable. I have to admit that I did discover the culprit before the end, but this didn't spoil the book at all. Lilly is taken out of her usual setting of her teashop and is transported to a very high end B and B owned and run by some dear friends of hers. But what starts out as a happy celebration turns sour with a murder. The characters are interesting and very well portrayed. The editing excellent and Lilly as lovable as ever. I can't wait for N° 4!

    This is a lovely cozy series. Not being a lover of tea in any shape or form it doesn't really distract from the great story lines and for any tea lovers i imagine the descriptions of various teas are an added incentive to read these delicious tales.
