A Tail of Village Murder: A Charity and Muffin Cozy English Mystery (The Charity and Muffin Cozy English Mysteries Book 1)
By Lucy Emblem
A charming English village. A trail of secrets. Two determined ladies and their loyal dogs.
Charity has traded windy walks on the Malvern Hills for the quieter life of Malvern View Retirement Village. Sharing the quaint Gardener’s Cottage with her spirited friend Dorothy, three lively dogs, and three inquisitive cats, she’s looking forward to peaceful days of tea, gossip, knitting, and the occasional crossword.
But trouble arrives before they’ve even unpacked.
First come petty thefts. Then an attack. And finally – a body discovered in the carefully tended flowerbeds. Drawing on her memories of village life in the 1950s, Charity soon realises something deeply dishonest is lurking beneath the village’s polite smiles … and she may be the only one who sees the pattern.
With her fluffy dog Muffin at her heels – and Dorothy always ready with a flask of tea and a fresh theory – Charity sets out to unravel the truth. Can two senior amateur sleuths (and their furry companions) solve the mystery before the killer strikes again?
The Charity & Muffin Cozy English Mysteries begin here with a warm-hearted, gently humorous whodunit full of dogs, friendship, and village intrigue.
Perfect for fans of:
• Senior sleuths – female amateur detectives
• Retirement village cozy mysteries
• Dog and cat sidekicks
• English village whodunits
• Light-hearted mysteries with gentle humour
• Friendship, tea, knitting, and community secrets
• The quirky, cosy world of Malvern View Village
