Death Before DessertDeath Before Dessert

"When she finds herself between jobs and out of her rented accommodation, Clara Harrington decides to take a break and stay with her beloved, yet eccentric aunt in the sleepy village of Picklemarsh, England. Vanessa Harrington is an award-winning crime novelist with an impressive back catalogue. When it comes to crime, and murder, there's not a lot that Vanessa doesn't know. Clara's hope for peace and quiet is shattered when, on her first night at Chadwick Lodge, the local town councillor is murdered, falling face down in his dessert. Finding herself in the middle of one of her books, Vanessa happily takes on the task of uncovering the murder and drags Clara along with her."--Back cover.
