Supermarket Mysteries: Books 1-5
(2025)(A book in the Supermarket Mysteries series)
An omnibus of novels by Rachel Ward
FIVE QUIRKY MURDER MYSTERIES SET IN A SLEEPY SOMERSET TOWN. 1400+ PAGES OF SUPERMARKET CHAOS. ONE NOSY CASHIER WHO WON’T STOP DIGGING.
Meet the workers of Kingsleigh Costsave. There’s Bea, a maths whizz with a heart of gold. Ant, a hapless high-school drop-out. And wisecracking Dot, in her late fifties and always beautifully coiffed.
Bea Jordan is smart, sassy, and the sharpest mind on checkout six. When she’s not bagging groceries or defusing aisle tantrums, she’s solving murders in the aisles of Kingsleigh’s Costsave Supermarket. With her razor wit, photographic memory, and a knack for noticing what others miss, Bea proves that you don’t need a badge to crack a case — just a Bonus Card and a pair of sensible shoes, and the occasional help from Ant, the scruffy, reluctant cleaner with a criminal past and a surprisingly loyal streak.
The little town of Kingsleigh is an English market town where everyone knows everyone’s names and business, and secrets can never stay buried for long. The pavements are uneven, the gossip lightning-fast, and the local Costsave supermarket sits right at the heart of it all. It’s a town where nothing ever happens. Until . . . a young woman is attacked in an alley on her way home from the supermarket.
Whether it’s a missing cat, a babysitter who vanishes, or a checkout girl who never clocks out, there’s one woman who’s always paying attention. Because in Kingsleigh,Bea’s checkout might close — but her investigations never do.
