What to expect
The creator of Hill House Vintage and “Queen of Cottagecore” (Vogue), Paula Sutton returns to the seemingly sleepy English village of Pudding Corner in this fresh, witty, fun, and delightfully modern cozy crime novel for vintage enthusiasts and fans of Richard Osman, Parini Shroff, Janice Hallett, and Anthony Horowitz.
“Miss Marple for the 21st century.”―S.J. Bennett, author of The Windsor Knot
Pudding Corner is abuzz: the enigmatic Lord Hugh Darlington has returned to his crumbling ancestral home after years away. With his fiancée, he plans to revive the grand Darlington Hall—and who better to help than antique-hunting Daphne Brewster?
Daphne is enchanted by the estate’s stained-glass windows, regal turrets, and sprawling kitchen garden. But amidst the overgrown greenery, she stumbles upon something far less picturesque: a body. A body that no one can identify.
As the shocking murder rocks the village, Daphne dusts off her sleuthing skills—despite the local PC's warnings to stay out of trouble. When Lord Darlington is attacked and a string of burglaries shakes Pudding Corner, it's clear that no one is safe.
With secrets buried deep and loyalties more tangled than ivy, Daphne must unearth the truth … before the killer strikes again.
Wickedly witty and brimming with twists as sharp as a pair of antique shears, The Body in the Kitchen Garden is a cozy crime page-turner that will keep you guessing until the very last clue is uncovered.
