NOW IN ONE VOLUME—A DEADLY BLEND OF THE FIRST THREE TEA SHOP MYSTERIES FROM NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR LAURA CHILDS

Charleston tea shop owner Theodosia Browning always seems to find herself steeped in mystery and murder.

Death by Darjeeling

Theo is serving tea for two hundred or so at the annual historic homes garden party when one guest is found dead clutching a teacup.

Gunpowder Green

While unveiling her newest flavor of tea at a yacht race, Theo hears the crack of an antique gun and a member of Charlestons elite falls dead.

Shades of Earl Grey

Theo attends the engagement soiree of the season where a wedding ring—a family heirloom from Marie Antoinettes crown—goes missing.

Includes a new foreword and 16 new recipes

Synopsis:

When a man is poisoned by tea, Theo is the prime suspect. Now she has to prove her innocence and track down the real killer-before someone else takes their last sip. Just the right blend of cozy fun and clever plotting.

A fun and playful read with highly enjoyable characters, a beautiful landscape, and interesting tidbits thrown in for good measure. Good for a relaxing afternoon. My only quibble is when she made a side note about different things environmental terrorists are willing to do to protect the land. She cited the method of putting metal stakes in trees to sabotage logging efforts as one example. Metal stakes haven't been used for years (decades?) due to metal detectors. Porcelain is preferred.
