A charming British village. A haunted bakery pantry. A recipe card no one remembers writing...

Hazel Blackwood thought she left her crime-reporting days behind when she moved back to Ashgrove-on-Hill to reopen her late aunt's tearoom. But when a suspicious incident at the village fête leads to whispers of long-forgotten grudges and stolen recipes, Hazel finds herself in the middle of a mystery no one else dares to stir.

As old rivalries rise, anonymous notes appear, and the pantry begins to whisper truths of its own, Hazel must uncover the real story behind the village's sweet facade—before someone silences her for good.

Perfect for fans of character-rich mysteries, strong female leads, and a dash of flour-dusted suspense.

From best-selling author Dr. Rabea Hadi, The Bitter Brew Murders is a slow-burn, character-driven mystery where the only thing more dangerous than poison... is a forgotten recipe.
