Beskrivning
The wickedly entertaining new Fethering mystery featuring chalk-and-cheese detective duo Carole and JudePolly's Cake Shop has been a feature of the shopping parade for many years, but when its owner announces her retirement, the Fethering residents start to worry about the loss of this popular amenity. Alarmed by rumours that the café might become a Starbucks, a group clubs together to form the Save Polly's Cake Shop Action Committee.The plan is that Polly's should become a community venture, managed and run by volunteers from the village. Roped in to help, Jude finds the committee meetings fraught with petty power struggles, clashing personalities and monstrous egos. Matters take a turn for the worse when she and Carole come across a badly-decomposed body on Fethering beach - and uncover a link to Polly's. Not only do the two neighbours have to find out whodunit, they are also faced with the thorny question: is it possible to run a business on that most volatile of commodities - goodwill?

Recensioner i media

The Killing in the Cafe... is an old-fashioned, clever mystery that keeps the reader guessing all the way to the end. The quirkiness of the characters lends to the intrigue of it all and the who-done-it, eerie quality remains to the very surprising end. Relationships run awry, motivate the crime and provide a satisfying end that is ironic indeed! This is a stand-alone story but will make many readers want to read the other mystery novels in this series! Nicely plotted, Simon Brett!
