Cozy Mysteries eBooks

The Thistlewood Tea & Treats Mysteries are traditional English village whodunits, set around a tea shop in a place small enough that everyone knows everyone and large enough that somebody always has a motive.

These are fair-play mysteries. Every clue you need is on the page before the solution, the red herrings are honest ones, and it is genuinely possible to work out the answer before the last chapter. There is no gore, no procedural grimness and nothing that will keep you awake — the appeal is the puzzle and the company, in that order.

Expect village fetes, a knitting circle with strong views, a Christmas market, a lighthouse, a cat café, and a recurring cast reintroduced in every book so that each one stands entirely alone. Start wherever you like.

They suit readers of classic golden-age crime who want something new in the same key. If you also enjoy small-town warmth without the body, the Wren's Cove romances sit next door.
