In the latest novel from the New York Times bestselling
author of Scones and Bones, Indigo Tea Shop owner
Theodosia Browning finds herself in hot water when a body
surfaces at the grand opening of Charleston's Neptune Aquarium...
The opening of Charleston's Neptune Aquarium is a major
event, and Theodosia Browning, owner of the Indigo Tea Shop,
has been hired to cater tea, scones, and finger foods for
the private party of big buck donors. But when Theodosia
slips away to view the Ocean Wall exhibit, she discovers
the body of a man, tangled in a net, drowned in this state-of-the-art
tank.
The EMTs on the scene say the man drowned, but Theodosia
spots defensive wounds on his hands. Even though the police
are not keen on her theory, Theodosia chases down a raft
of suspects that include a shady lawyer, an extravagant
lady restaurateur, and an aquarium board member. Complications
ensue when Theodosia is also tapped to compete in a charity
scavenger event, cater a tea luncheon at her Aunt Libby's
plantation, and host a Chado ceremony at the Heritage Society.
Along with pulse-pounding action, there are plenty of tea
tips and recipes for Charleston Pecan Brownie Bars, Honey
Bee Scones, and Sweet Potato Butter.
