Three stories in one! The paperback of The Biscuit Tin Murders contains all three of the stories in the three ebooks, seeing Olive Crisp solving three different crimes in 1970s Cambridge, England.
"A Fatal Fall from King's College"
When a student falls from the turrets of King’s College, Cambridge and the police rule his death as accidental, Olive consults her tarot cards - which confirm her suspicions of murder - and decides to take the investigation into her own hands. Fortunately, the college porter is a loyal customer of Olive’s cafe, The Biscuit Tin, and when she plies him with his favourite almond croissants and cups of Earl Grey, he reveals secrets about student societies and jealousies that might prove motive for murder. These clues lead Olive, and her two best friends, Blythe and Millie, to Newnham College where their suspicions are confirmed and the chief suspect discovered. With the clock ticking, will Olive be able to solve the mystery before the case is closed and the truth lost forever?
"A Body in the Graveyard"
When Olive stumbles upon a dead body while walking Biscuit one morning, she decides to investigate. The bumbling police force aren't making much progress with the local community but Olive, with a combination of her charm and delicious baked goods, manages to persuade potential witnesses to open up and reveal secrets about the victim and clues that could lead to the catching of his killer. Bringing slices of lemon chiffon cakes to the victim's neighbours and lavender biscuits to his students, Olive follows the trail of metaphorical bread crumbs that eventually enables allows her to discover the killer in the unlikeliest of places. Meanwhile, the police too are closing in but they're intent on arresting an innocent man. Will Olive be able to convince them that he didn't do it and prove that she's right about the one who did?
"Death of a Businessman"
When a tyrannical businessman is murdered Olive discovers that half of Cambridge wanted him dead. And finding which one actually killed him is like trying to find a poisonous needle in a murderous haystack. Events take a turn for the bizarre when the victim’s son begs Olive to rescue his kidnapped lizard. Are the two crimes connected? As Olive delves deeper into the case, discovering just how monstrous the victim was, she questions whether or not she wants to solve it at all. Meanwhile, Hugo is falling in love with her and Olive is struggling with her own deepening feelings and her fears of loving him back…
A charming cosy culinary crime series set in sleepy 1970s Cambridge, England, The Biscuit Tin Murders is a sweet recipe for a delightfully comforting read, containing far too many slices of cake, along with several servings of crime, plenty of sugar and just a sprinkling of magic...
If you enjoy stories set in sleepy English towns with warmth, wit and whimsy as their main ingredients, along with twists that'll keep you guessing and subplots that'll make you smile, then you’ll love these delicious tales.
This and every book in the series can be read as a standalone, though you can also follow developing character storylines by reading the books in order. This is a humorous cosy mystery with a British female amateur detective in a small community. Written in British English. No graphic violence, sex or strong language. Just plenty of tea and cake!
