A discarded tea cake causes a fatal fall. An accident? Or was it purposefully placed? Two elderly ladies task themselves with a puzzling case.

When widowed Annabel Churchill leaves London and buys a detective agency in the village of Compton Poppleford, she’s faced with a murder investigation. Teaming up with eccentric spinster, Doris Pemberley, she vows to crack it.

The death of local busybody, Mrs Furzgate, at the local hotel leaves the villagers vexed and the constabulary clueless. Churchill and Pemberley fuel themselves with cake and quiz a range of local characters. What’s the connection with Mr Bodkin the baker? And why did Mrs Furzgate fall out with the Women’s Compton Poppleford Bridge Club?

It’s soon apparent that many people bore Mrs Furzgate a grudge. But when Inspector Mappin accuses the senior sleuths of meddling, they’re in danger of never finding the killer…
