The first book in a NEW cozy mystery series!


Synopsis:

Still spinning from the hustle and bustle of city life, Jodie ‘Nosey’ Parker is glad to be back in the Cornish village she calls home. Having quit the Met Police in search of something less dangerous, the change of pace means she can finally start her dream catering company and raise her daughter, Daisy, somewhere safer.

But there’s nothing quite like having your first job back at home be catering an ex-boyfriend’s wedding to remind you of just how small your village is. And when the bride vanishes, Jodie is drawn into the investigation, realising that life in the countryside might not be as quaint as she remembers.

With a missing bride on their hands, murder and mayhem lurks around every corner…

But surely saving the day will be a piece of cake for this not-so-amateur sleuth?


Review:

This is the first book in the series, but there are already 3 more available! And you can get all 4 ebooks for under $9 right now on Amazon!

This is the perfect little cozy if you want a quick read, ie laid up with Omicron (just ugh, right?). It's part cozy, part rom com, and part British procedural! Jodie is a parent we all can relate to-changing jobs because of the effect on your kid of your job, and moving to where it's better for them, even if they hate you for it. Culture shock aside, having to cook for your ex, just adds in the drama. But then when the police don't seem to be searching enough and Jodie sticks her hand back in, you secretly root for her to use her 'other' skills, which are sine honed, and to find the killer! As in a chamring family and potential for multiple beaus, and you ahve a fun series, you'll want to binge read your way thru!
