The Baker's Dozen

Summer in Millbrook means Aunt Sally. The annual league tournament fills Pete's beer garden with trestle tables and lantern light, visiting teams and village gossip, and the comfortable hum of a Cotswolds evening where nobody has anywhere else to be. David Whitfield, the London weekender everyone adores, is at the centre of it all: buying rounds, charming neighbours, and making everyone feel welcome.

When David is found dead in the beer garden and letters found in his cottage connect him to Eliza's past in ways she never suspected, for the third time, the finger of suspicion points squarely at the baker. Everyone in the village has an opinion. Everyone in the village has a theory. And at least one person in the village knows exactly what happened in the beer garden after the lanterns went out.

The Baker's Dozen is the third book in the Death & Sourdough series. Best served with good bread and someone worth sharing it with.
