About this listen

When English tearoom owner, Gemma Rose, finds herself on an unexpected trip to Scotland, she is delighted by the chance to stay in a beautiful Scottish castle—complete with mounted stag heads, cosy fireplaces, and misty mountain views. She’s looking forward to a relaxing weekend in the Highlands, sampling traditional Scottish baking, trying her hand at fly fishing, and learning to enjoy a “wee dram” of whisky.

But when she stumbles on a dead body in the castle library, Gemma quickly becomes steeped in a country-house murder with a distinctly tartan feel! Luckily, the nosy “Old Biddies” are on hand to help with the sleuthing, and even her cheeky tabby cat, Muesli, is keen to lend a paw. But with a castle full of quirky guests, the list of suspects is long, and everyone has something to hide. Can Gemma untangle the web of lies and motives, and reel in the killer before it’s too late?

Filled with humour, suspense, and unexpected twists, A High Whisk Situation is a delightful listen for fans of cozy mysteries and traditional English whodunits. So put the kettle on, grab a scone (or a shortbread, we won't judge), and get ready for a hilarious, entertaining adventure in the Scottish Highlands.

I was enjoying this book right up until Gemma Rose started falsely accusing people of murder & then thought she was right, specially when she intimidated the young, fragile harpist. This part seemed rather bullying specially as miss rose is NOT a detective!
Then with she continued about having proof, from someone else about a shadow, this is summarising not proof.
She's better off having someone to discuss the case with instead of going half-cocked on her own, making wrong assumptions, then just wildly accusing & getting it wrong!
Normally Gemma is gentle, friendly not harsh or brash, didn't like this side of her!
I would've loved to hear more about Scotland. I'm Scottish & absolutely love the place, did feel their was lots of depth about history & surroundings missing from this story. Scotland has a lot of history about ghosts etc & secret passages in castles, feuds, fights, highland games, big festivals all part of its history.

Did like Ewan though, thought he was lovely.

Of all the books, I loved the magical chocolate books best with uncle viktor the vampire, please can we have more of them.

It's a tame story. I like it when the old biddies are involved, even though I find that an offensive title for them. And, luckily for me, they were included in this story but nowhere near enough.

The story was ok, usual formula. The cat was included too, even though taking the cat away on trips is really not something most people would do.

It certainly was not one of my favourites but it was good easy listening.

It's a cute book

Made me want to visit the highlands again! Brilliant setting for the latest Gemma and friends sleuthing adventure. Enjoyed learning the Scottish recipes, too!

Another great mystery

I have read all the Oxford tearoom collection and thought I would listen to this one. I have not been disappointed! Pearl Hewitt has the most delightful voice and a brilliant ability to reproduce accents! A real treat. The story took us to Scotland in the Highlands and was special for me as this is a place I have been many times and is my little paradise on earth.
Thank you H.Y. Hanna for a captivating story. My sleuth talents were put to shame as I missed to find who the culprit was and realised or suspected very late in the story. Please keep writing about Emma and the biddies! Great fun and escapism!

Another fabulous read
