The Charlotte Denver Cozy Mystery Series Books 1 - 4

What happens when small-town murder meets a big-hearted café owner?

Grab a cuppa, get settled in your favourite reading spot, and get acquainted with café owner Charlotte Denver; the well-meaning, but hilariously politically-incorrect members of her small-town community; and Pippin the dog. These clean, fun, cozy mysteries have plenty of recipes to try for yourself, but no gore, graphic language, sex or violence, and no pesky cliffhangers! Plenty of laughs, amateur sleuthing, and murder await in this four-book collection, set on England's beautiful Cornish coast, in the fictional town of St. Eves.
TAPAS, CARROT CAKE AND A CORPSE - BOOK 1
Small-town murder was never so calculated...
When a stranger is murdered, the residents of a close-knit community close ranks as the hunt for a killer gathers pace, and it's not long before inquisitive café owner Charlotte Denver is desperate for a return to carefree, small-town life. 
Determined to do whatever she can to see the killer behind bars, she starts poking around in things she shouldn't... and discovers a secret that rocks the bustling coastal town to its core.
FUDGE CAKE, FELONY AND A FUNERAL - BOOK 2
Grief, greed and grudges - the perfect recipe for murder...
As the townspeople bid a final goodbye to a much-loved member of the community, and relatives of the deceased arrive in St. Eves, it's not long before tempers flare as they become consumed by greed, intent to get their hands on the family fortune.
When a body is discovered, will Charlotte find the vital clue to the killer's identity before anyone else is bumped off? 
SPARE RIBS, SECRETS AND A SCANDAL - BOOK 3
Sometimes it's the people you think you know best who are keeping the biggest secrets...
As Charlotte prepares to move into her new home, life couldn't be sunnier. However, when old friends return to the town, tragedy follows close behind and it's not long before she finds herself trying to clear her best friend's name as long-hidden secrets and a scandal from years gone by are revealed. In a race against time to save a loved one, Charlotte needs every one of her amateur sleuthing skills as the story reaches it shocking climax. Will she be too late to save the day?
PUMPKINS, PERIL AND A PAELLA - BOOK 4
A ghost from the past resurfaces at Halloween and Charlotte soon realises they'll stop at nothing to get what they want...
When a dead body is discovered during the annual St. Eves' Halloween fair, it isn't long before Charlotte finds herself up to her neck in helping to solve another murder mystery. This one, however, proves to be a little too close to home for her liking as she finds herself, and the man she loves, in danger. With clues to find, a killer to catch and a wedding to organise, Charlotte has her work cut out.
Come and solve the mysteries and have a little fun along the way, with engaging characters, and a little romance.
