Crossed Tarts — Carolyn O'Brien

Caer Crossed life in Hayden-Croy revolves around four things, her Vicar husband Ter, their first child due, their mutt Wolfie and finally settling into village life until another murder strikes the small community following a party the Crossed attended along with about half of the village. Investigator John Hewes is called up from London, by the new occupants, Tyson and Blythe Gregg not to help solve the crime but to retrieve a stolen bauble. Caer has her own theory of who could have done both and works with her insider, the manor's own cook learning that not everything is on the topside when it comes to murder.
