Tea, coffee or a cozy mystery? Three exciting cozy crime books are releasing this month with a common theme: murder chased with a drink.
All Neeti Shah wants is to enjoy retirement and drink chai with friends, but the murder of a much-despised neighbor gets in the way of her plans. To find the killer, the former librarian and her friends form the Masala Chai Mystery Club in this cozy book perfect for fans of Only Murders in the Building and The Thursday Murder Club.
The local craft brewery has been the target of recent attacks, and the Village Detectives have been hired to find the culprit behind the attempted sabotage. But when a dead body is discovered in the brewery's tap room, the amateur sleuths set out not just to uncover a brewing vendetta, but also to prevent another murder.
Lily's Cape Cod tearoom welcomes all sorts of guests, but none as quirky as the group of middle-aged women performing seances under the guise of a book club discussion. But when their leader and alleged medium is found dead at the bottom of a cliff, Lily can't just serve tea—she'll also have to solve a murder.
