by Ron and Janet Benrey Nigel Owens and Flick Adams, the director and the curator of the Royal Tunbridge Wells Tea Museum, are thrown into the media spotlight when a body is found in the museum's garden. Etienne Makepeace, known as Britain's "Tea Sage," disappeared forty years ago. Who knew he was resting comfortably under the Assam bushes? Unfortunately, the bank that funds the Tea Museum is not amused by all the attention. In an effort to save the museum, Nigel and Flick, who are enjoying a budding romance, must investigate the murder and find out how their famous visitor found his way into their garden. But as they begin to unravel the mystery, their relationship begins to come apart as well. A disagreement over an Etienne Makepeace tribute being housed in the museum sets Nigel and Flick on separate paths. Although they eventually make up, there are many secrets still to be revealed - and not all of them surround the dear departed Mr. Makepeace. Written in a rich style reminiscent of Agatha Christie, the Benreys present a satisfying sequel to the first novel in their Royal Tunbridge Wells Mystery series. Nigel's British sensibilities play perfectly against Flick's more Americanized spontaneity. They are the perfect protagonists for this super series. So...brew a cuppa, put up your feet, and enjoy The Final Crumpet. You'll be hooked, mate! HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION! |
