A Sticky Situation - Mulbury Mystery, #1 - E-book - ePub

Welcome to Mulbury where the bodies are piling up. Rosemary Exeter knows quite a few things about jams and pickles. She's learning quite a few things about murder, too. The little Australian tourist town of Mulbury is usually a quiet place where visitors eat Franco's pies in the Square, drink Rakisha's earth-friendly legume coffee, and browse the range of second-hand books at Jasper's Read Mulbury.  When Mrs Lionel discovers the body of an old man under The Exceptional Tree, everyone in the town of Mulbury assumes that he died peacefully.
Everyone, that is, except Rosemary who doesn't think the old man's death was particularly peaceful, not when no one has ever seen the man before in a town where everyone knows everyone else. Rosemary starts a careful investigation, aided (and sometimes hindered) by her fellow shopkeepers on Goldmarket Road. The mysteries increase: a car with blood on the back seat, a lost precious postcard, missing fathers.
It's a good thing Rosemary has Sunny to come home to every night, even if the cat thinks most of what happens outside the confines of The Preserved Mulbury is nonsense. A small-town mystery with quirky residents and an unimpressed cat.
