The Teaberry Strangler (A Tea Shop Mystery) by Laura Childs
Backcover blurb: The narrow cobblestone alleys of Charleston are bustling with shoppers looking for bargains on antiques, heaping bowls of crab chowder - and of course Theodosia Browning's delicious teas. But when the clock strikes ten, the alleys clear, except for one body - discovered by a horrified Theodosia. It's the strangled form of Daria, the map store's owner.
Many locals have shown interest in buying Daria's shop - but enough to kill? Plus there's the customer hell-bent on getting his hands on a certain not-for-sale map. One can hardly throw a scone without hitting a suspect. Most alarming, however, is Detective Tidwell's theory: that the killer mistook Daria for Theodosia. Because that would mean the killer's work isn't yet done...
Includes scrumptious recipes and tea time tips! This 2010 publication is the eleventh instalment in the Tea Shop Mystery series. Visit her website at www.laurachilds.com
