Baking Bad - A Cozy Mystery (With Dragons)

By Kim M. Watt
Baking Bad - A Cozy Mystery (With Dragons) by Kim M. Watt digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

A tranquil village.

A poisoned cupcake.

A murdered vicar.

 

A simple case - or it should be. But all clues point to the Toot Hansell Women's Institute, and Detective Inspector Adams is about to discover there's much more to the W.I. than just bake sales and jam making.

 

Alice Martin, RAF Wing Commander (Ret.), and current chair of the Women's Institute, knows the ladies of the W.I. are not guilty. But she has a bigger problem. Toot Hansell has a large and dragonish secret, and she needs to keep the police well away from it. Plus she'd really rather not be arrested for murder. Again.

 

Meanwhile, Beaufort Scales, High Lord of the Cloverly dragons and survivor of the days of knights and dragon hunts, knows even better than Alice that the modern dragon only survives as long as no one knows they exist. But he also knows friends don't let friends face murder inquiries alone. Beaufort fully intends to Get Involved.

 

This investigation is about to take on dragonish proportions.

 

Best put the kettle on…

 

 

A funny cozy mystery (with dragons), for anyone that likes their mysteries British, gentle, and well-stocked with cake, tea, and friendship. And dragons, obviously.

 

Baking Bad is the laughter-steeped first book in The Beaufort Scales series of cozy mysteries (with dragons). If you like casually profane heroines, whimsical shenanigans, and stories that give you wings, then you'll love Kim M. Watt's enchanting tale.

Slightly Smiling Face“This was a cute book. Nothing sensational, but very enjoyable. The dragons were adorable and I do look forward to reading more about them in other books in this series. I don’t read a lot of mysteries so it was fun to theorise about who murdered the vicar. I had no idea until the end. If you want a super light and fun read, this fits the bill. It’s cute, with enough mystery and suspense to hold your interest but not too much.”
