Paperback: Meet Tannie Maria: the loveable writer of recipes in her local paper, the Klein Karoo Gazette.
One Sunday morning, as Maria stirs apricot jam, she hears her editor Harriet on the stoep. What Maria doesn't realise is that Harriet is about to deliver a whole basketful of challenges and the first ingredient in two new recipes - recipes for love and murder.
A delicious blend of intrigue, milk tart and friendship, join Tannie Maria in her first investigation. Consider your appetite whetted for a whole new series of mysteries set in South Africa.
Recipes for Love and Murder (2015) is the 'amusing' and 'chock full of good food and interesting characters' debut in the Tannie Maria Mystery series published in at least twelve languages across five continents.
The Satanic Mechanic (2016), the sequel, is out now in both paperback and Kindle forms.
About the author: Sally Andrew lives in a mud-brick house on a nature reserve in the Klein Karoo, South Africa, with her partner, artist Bowen Boshier, and other wildlife (including a giant eland and a secretive leopard). She also spends time in the wilderness of southern Africa and the seaside suburb of Muizenberg. She has a Masters in Adult Education from the University of Cape Town.
For some decades she was a social and environmental activist, then the manager of Bowens art business, before she settled down to write full-time. Recipes for Love and Murder is her first novel.
Sally Andrew lives in a wilderness area where internet access is difficult. She is unfortunately unable to respond to mail from readers. She does occasionally climb a mountain and Tweet. Join the discussion on Twitter@TannieSall or visit www.sallyandrew.com.
