Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Honestly 4 starts is overrated for this installment in The Tea Shop Series containing as it does several irrelevant & unfinished sub plots and serendipitous coincidences that beggar belief BUT it's all such good fun with lovely characters right down to Earl Grey Theodosia's canine companion that I can forgive all its flaws. Good book dealing with the Charleston area involving Theodosia, of course. This time she finds the murder victim as she is competing in a horse jumping race. She is thrown from her horse and finds Abby Davis shot to death. Various things happen and several people are suspects. I did not suspect the murderer this time. 3.5 stars (rating shown may differ depending on whether site allows half star ratings). I've read a few books from this series prior to this one and enjoyed them. I thought it was strange that a tea shop mystery started out in a non-tea setting. I didn't remember Jory (who dated the main character in the past) or Parker (who's dating her now) from my past reading. I didn't guess who was behind the murder until it was revealed. I did suspect one other character of theft correctly (or apparently correctly) though. no reviews | add a review

Twisting her neck slightly, feeling a rise of panic. Theodosia caught sight of more blood. And finally saw the body. Laying right there in front of her. A woman in a pale peach suit, crumbled horribly and slumped against the split-rail fence.
