Returning to Wallshire was never part of Peyton Hart's plan—especially not to inherit a tea shop she barely knows how to run and uncover secrets tied to the mother who kept her at arm's length.
But just as she's beginning to settle into small-town rhythms at Steeped in Mysteary, an elegant invitation pulls her into the heart of Wallshire's most exclusive event: a tea-themed art showcase by the enigmatic Margot Drake.
What should have been an evening of art and awkward mingling turns eerie when Margot never arrives—and whispers of scandal, betrayal, and a past no one wants to talk about begin to swirl like steam over hot Earl Grey.
With a sharp-eyed detective lurking in the wings and the scent of secrets steeping stronger by the hour, Peyton must figure out what Margot was hiding… before someone silences her next.
Earl Grey & Murder is a charming and twist-filled cozy mystery that invites readers to unravel the clues alongside a heroine discovering that every new beginning—like the perfect cup of tea—takes time to steep. For fans of small towns with big secrets, found-family warmth, and mysteries served with just the right amount of sass and spice.
