Books in this box set:
ALL-BUTTER SHORTDEAD (Prequel)
Gemma ditches her high-flying job and returns to Oxford to follow her dream: opening a traditional English tearoom serving warm buttery scones with jam and clotted cream... Only problem is--murder is the first thing on the menu and Gemma is the key suspect! And the only people Gemma can turn to for help are four nosy old ladies from her local Cotswolds village - not to mention a cheeky little tabby cat named Muesli. Who was the mysterious woman Gemma met on the flight back from Australia and why was she murdered? Now Gemma must find the killer, solve the mystery and clear her name if she's to have her cake--and serve it too!
A SCONE TO DIE FOR (Book 1)
When an American tourist is murdered with a scone in her quaint English tearoom, Gemma must solve the mystery with the help of the nosy Old Biddies and a mischievous little feline named Muesli. But between her bossy, matchmaking mother and the return of her old college love as a handsome CID detective, Gemma soon has her hands full and her head spinning!
Murder is bad for business, especially when customers think your scones are more deadly than delicious. With the body count rising and her tearoom going bust, can Gemma find the killer before things turn to custard?
TEA WITH MILK AND MURDER (Book 2)
While at an Oxford cocktail party, tearoom owner Gemma Rose overhears a sinister conversation minutes before a University student is fatally poisoned. Could there be a connection? And could her best friend Cassie's new boyfriend have anything to do with the murder?
Gemma decides to start her own investigation, helped by the meddling old ladies from her Oxfordshire village and her old college flame, CID detective Devlin O'Connor. But her mother is causing havoc at Gemma's quaint English tearoom and her best friend is furious at her snooping... and this mystery is turning out to have more twists than a chocolate pretzel!
Too late, Gemma realises that she could be the next item on the killer's menu. Or will her little tabby cat, Muesli, save the day?

Customer Reviews
Wonderful cozy mystery series
I’m a sucker for cozy mysteries set in the English countryside and fell in love with H.Y. Hanna’s book when I read the first! There’s the return of Gemma in the first book to start a tea room in the Cotwolds, her overbearing mother, best friends, the old Biddies, an old flame who’s now a detective and of course someone dies… Each book continues the Gemma’s adventures as the owner of a tea room and an amateur detective who’s doesn’t mean to get involved in local murders but does anyhow. Plus Muesli the cat is a wonderful bonus to the books!
