Coming up roses: a cozy mystery (with dragons) - kim watt

Theres a fine line between eccentric and a danger to oneself and others.

And that line may just lie with the body in the freezer.

Thats certainly what DI Adams is thinking when said body turns up in Roses freezer.

Rose might not look like an octogenarian black widow, but its the inspectors job to follow the evidence, no matter how distasteful that might be.

Alice and the ladies of the Toot Hansell Womens Institute, however, couldnt disagree more.

They dont believe for a moment that Rose is responsible for anything worse than a little forgetfulness, and theyre certainly not going to let her be hauled off to jail or an old folks home for a crime she didnt commit.

Theyre taking matters into their own hands, and if certain detective inspectors have rather limiting beliefs regarding what constitutes helping the police with their investigations, well, they shall just have to deal with it.

Between Roses squabbling exes, mysterious relatives, and shadowy connections to the more fringe elements of the scientific community, Alice and the W.

are in a desperate race to clear Roses name - if they can - before DI Adams has no choice but to arrest her.

And hunting the real murderer would be a lot easier if they didnt also have a small problem involving lurking journalists hunting dragons, as well as certain eccentric dragons who seem determined to hunt them back .

Nothings looking too rosy in Toot Hansell this spring.

A funny cozy mystery (with dragons), for anyone that likes their mysteries British, gentle, and well-stocked with cake, tea, and friendship.

And dragons, obviously.
