When beloved baker Elspeth Mawnan dies in a mysterious van crash, bookseller Demelza Pascoe suspects it wasn't just dodgy brakes. Between suspicious scones, missing almanacs, and a community unwilling to talk, Demelza digs deep into the secrets St Merryn's Cove has tried to sugarcoat. With help from her ever-sarcastic assistant Jess, a retired gardener with an illegal green thumb, and a police sergeant who wishes she'd mind her own shelves, Demelza uncovers more than just motives—she uncovers a quiet revolution.Witty, warm, and laced with lemon drizzle and danger, this is the sixth in a sharp new cosy mystery series for fans of Richard Osman, The Thursday Murder Club, and anyone who's ever suspected the jam wasn't just jam.
