A Tail of Christmas Murder: A Charity and Muffin Cozy English Mystery (The Charity and Muffin Cozy English Mysteries Book 2)
By Lucy Emblem
A festive English village, a retirement community full of secrets, and two determined ladies with their loyal dogs.
Charity was hoping for a merry Christmas in Malvern View Retirement Village – mince pies in the café, children making decorations, and cosy evenings with her fluffy dog Muffin. But when a mysterious stranger doesn’t live to see Christmas morning, her peaceful holiday takes an unexpected turn.
With Dorothy at her side (armed with tea, buns, and the occasional sherry), Charity begins to untangle a web of festive mishaps: jealousies under the mistletoe, quarrels over carols, and a near-toppled Christmas tree that sets tongues wagging. Behind the sparkle of fairy lights, it seems some villagers are hiding secrets darker than the winter nights.
As suspicion spreads through the village, Charity’s quiet observations and sharp instincts once again come into play. But will they be enough?
Can two senior amateur sleuths – and their loyal dogs – unwrap the truth before another tragedy spoils the season? Or will danger shadow Charity’s new life of knitting, cake, and crossword puzzles?
A warm, gently humorous Christmas cozy mystery full of friendship, community, and seasonal charm.
Perfect for fans of:
• Senior sleuths in cozy mysteries
• Retirement village murder mysteries
• Amateur detectives with loyal dogs
• English village cozies with animals, cake, and Christmas cheer
