High tea and high fashion turn deadly in this latest installment of the New York Times bestselling series.
Tea shop entrepreneur Theodosia Browning has been tapped to host a fancy Limón Tea in a genuine lemon orchard as a rousing kickoff to Charleston Fashion Week. But as fairy lights twinkle and the scent of lemon wafts among the tea tables, the deadly murder of a fashion designer puts the squeeze on things.
As the lemon curd begins to sour, the murdered woman’s daughter begs Theodosia to help find the killer. Tea events and fashion shows must go on, however, which puts Theodosia and her tea sommelier, Drayton Conneley, right in the thick of squabbling business partners, crazed clothing designers, irate film producers, drug deals, and a disastrous Tea Trolley Tour.[summary via publisher]
Lemon Curd Killer is the 25th mystery in the popular Tea Shop Mysteries, and fans of this series are not going to want to miss this one!
Theodosia and Drayton get in the middle of another murder, when a guest at the Limon Tea for the Charleston Fashion Week is found dead. Theodosia must follow a deadly trail of unhappy business partners, drug deals and more, as she untangles the mystery to find a killer.
Reading the Tea Shop Mysteries is just like taking a sip of my favourite Earl Grey tea, absolute happiness after one sip [or page!]. They are simply like coming home, as I've been with Theodosia since the first adventure. This one was just as delightful as the previous 24. I loved tagging along with Theodosia and Drayton and trying to solve the mystery before them. It was a tangled web, as the victim wasn't very likable... so plenty of suspects!
I enjoyed listening to Barbara McCulloh's narration. She always delivers a flawless audio experience. This was the perfect listen, on my many hours of dog walking, and was so enjoyable!
I simply cannot recommend this series enough. If you enjoy a good cup of tea, you will find these cozies just delightful!
