A Marriage In Mill-Upon-Mortlake
(2026)(The eighth book in the Mill-Upon-Mortlake Cozy Historical Mystery series)
A novel by M Culler
It’s the wedding of the centurywell, at least it’s the first wedding of the century, in Mill-Upon-Mortlake. The course of true love may indeed run smooth, but the preparations for the wedding of the village’s two (beloved) eccentrics swiftly descend into chaos.
With nerves running high, digestive biscuits running short, and a whole host of friends and acquaintances running in, Daphne Noble and John Gainsworth just want to get married and start their new lives. But that’s going to be a bit difficult when Mrs. Teasdale, the village’s most notorious gossip, is discovered stuffed into the vestry wardrobe during the wedding rehearsal, very much alive, but completely concussed. Who would hurt a sweet, loquacious old lady? Someone who doesn’t want her to share what she knows, that’s who!
Rumors abound that Mrs. Teasdale knew of a secret that could ruin the wedding. Daphne and John must retrace the recuperating Mrs. Teasdale’s steps in a race to discover the truth before the vicar decides that the wedding must be called off due to ‘suspicious circumstances.’
Will John and Daphne find out the truth and set everyone’s mind at ease so the wedding can go forward? Or will a marriage in Mill-Upon-Mortlake turn into mayhem in Mill-Upon-Mortlake?
A Marriage in Mill-Upon-Mortlake is a short, cozy mystery standalone with a hearty dose of comedy for lovers of P.G. Wodehouse and Agatha Christie.
