Another One Bites the Crust by H.Y. Hanna
Oxford Tearoom Mysteries #7

Gemma Rose and her friends have another cozy murder mystery to solve in the seventh book of this series. This time a popular TV Chef is killed just before he is to give a cooking demonstration and Gemma is the one to find his body. With Devlin, her boyfriend, at her side for the evening he is on the case quickly but Gemma, her friend(s) and the biddies have their own ways of finding out who done it and are not going to leave it to the detectives to figure things out without doing their part, too. There are plenty of suspects that are viable but only one who did it…and that person is revealed before the end of the story. Add in Gemma meeting Devlin’s mother, conversations with suspects, capturing a feral cat, Gemma’s uptight mother, someone wanting to cat-nap Gemma’s cat and you have plenty happening in a delightful story that I thoroughly enjoyed reading today.

Thank you to the author – this is my honest review.
