Faith's First Case

Mother. Cook. Detective?

Faith Amponsah may run the Met Police canteen with an iron fist, but this devout Ghanaian immigrant, commanding mother, and formidable Aunty lives worlds apart from crime. That is, until a shocking kitchen discovery pulls her into its depths . . .

Suddenly at the centre of a robbery, murder, and a mysterious disappearance, Faith finds she has a taste for sleuthing. Used to being overlooked by her employers, her rebellious daughter and her mollycoddled son, being invisible now means she sees the clues others miss, the whispers they ignore.

But as Faith digs deeper, the case threatens to boil over, hitting terrifyingly close to home. She’s unearthing dangerous adversaries, painful truths about her loved ones, and long-buried secrets from her own past.

Faith is used to the heat of the kitchen - but this time, she might just get burned.
