Why read it?

2 authors picked A Scone To Die For as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The characters make this book fabulous – the Old Biddies are a hoot with their less than subtle comments and snooping. And Gemma’s tea room is divine, set against a charming Oxford backdrop. And there’s a delightful, plump, adorable cat. Muesli is a fluffy angel with a naughty side.

Funny, clever, and the scenes in the café will have you craving a slice of dessert to go with your murder.

From K.E.'s list on involving muffins and murder.

Twenty-nine-year-old Gemma Rose, an Oxford grad, leaves her corporate life in Australia and decides to move back home to England and create a new life for herself, said new life including the operation of the Little Stables Tearoom in the Cotswolds village of Meadowford-on-Smythe. Hanna’s books feature likable characters, fun plots, and did I mention the Cotswolds?
