A Death at Bay View Hotel: A Jemima Jago Mystery, Book 5 (Unabridged‪)‬

Join Jemima Jago—librarian, cake lover, and fearless super-sleuth—on her next puzzling case, when an entry at a baking competition proves delicious...but deadly!

It’s time for the Bay View Hotel’s annual bake-off, and Jem is looking forward to sampling all the cake she can. But when head judge and successful local critic Lemmy Beaglehole drops dead in the middle of tasting a chocolate gateau, Jem can’t resist throwing herself into the investigation.

Jem interviews everyone present and discovers that Lemmy had plenty of enemies at the bake-off and was famous for his venomous reviews. But who could have hated him enough to actually poison him? Was it the long-suffering hotel manager? The local busybody who hated Lemmy enough to stage a protest over his inclusion as head judge? Or the aspiring baker, whose dreams of running his own pastry shop were dashed by a terrible review?

Finding a crumpled rose-patterned envelope that may have contained the poison, Jem feels certain she’s close to the truth. But when a huge storm blows in over the Isles of Scilly, trapping everyone—bake-off contestants, staff, and guests—in the hotel overnight, Jem must work fast to untangle the clues and catch the killer before their next toxic treat ends up on her plate!

A fun and cozy mystery set in the beautiful Isles of Scilly, from the New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Emma Jameson. Fans of Agatha Christie, Faith Martin, and Betty Rowlands will be utterly hooked!
