Put the kettle on and discover an utterly charming new cozy murder mystery set in a sleepy English seaside town.

Fiona, Sue, and Daisy, three retired ladies who volunteer at the local charity shop, Dogs Need Nice Homes, can't believe their favorite customer is dead.

Eighty-six-year-old Sarah Brown was found murdered in her hallway by her delivery man, a domino clutched in her hand—with a name scratched on it.

When another person is found dead with a domino in their hand, and with the police making no progress, the ladies will need to help unmask a serial killer. At least they have Fiona's scruffy-haired terrier cross to assist them.

With plenty of tea and cake along the way, and despite squabbles with their rivals, the Cats Alliance across the street, the Charity Shop Detective Agency is born.

Fans of The Thursday Murder Club, Janice Hallett, Simon Brett, Ian Moore, and Sarah Yarwood-Lovett will adore this exciting new talent in cozy crime.

I do prefer English detective series without unnecessary brutality and violence, a marvellous well thought out story line.

similarities to the Marlow murders and Thursday murder club.

Came across this book after searching for stories performed by my favourite narrator Zara Ramm, and I'm so pleased I did. Genuinely likeable characters (including Simon Le Bon 🤣), enjoyed how the tale unfolded and draws the reader in. Looking forward to the rest of the series.

A lovely gentle read

So many things to like about this book, the underlying murder mystery was very well done with lots of twists and turns and a few red herrings along the way. The characters are brilliant with wonderful nicknames and the central characters believable and interesting. The narrator does a brilliant job and has a very listenable voice. All in all of of my favourites in this genre.

One of the best
