Business is going well at Gemma Rose’s quaint English teashop, and she's delighted about her first big catering job at a local village funeral...until the day ends with a second body and one of the Old Biddies accused of murder! Now, the resourceful tearoom sleuth must find out which delicious pudding contained the deadly arsenic - and who might have wanted the wealthy widow dead....

But Gemma has other troubles to contend with, from her naughty cat, Muesli, running loose in her tearoom to an unexpected hedgehog guest in her home - and that's before the all-important "meet the parents" dinner with her handsome detective boyfriend turns into a total disaster! With so many things on her plate, can Gemma solve the mystery in time to catch the murderer or will she come to a sticky end?

Another great addition

This series just keeps getting better! As always the old biddies were greatly entertaining and the antics keep you wondering just what they will get up to next. I was honestly quite surprised at the revelation of the murderer and was keapt invested into the story the entire time. I really loved how Gemma ended up fostering the cute little hedgie.
The narrator did a fabulous job and was very entertaining. I'm looking forward to the next in the series!

Entertaining and fun books!

I absolutely love these books and the narrator is so endearing! I can hardly wait to read the next one!!

Always enjoyable

The books in this series are always enjoyable. They have good plots and characters plus the author has a good sense of humor.

Earns 5/5 Sticky Toffee Murders!

Murder Is Better with an English Accent!

Gemma Rose has expanded into catering with her first function the funeral reception of Rex Clifford. His wife, dubbed a ‘floozy’ by his daughter, has inherited the entire estate making this somber event…murderously tense. Everyone is delighted with Gemma’s food, but all goes sour when the widow coughs, sputters, and collapses…another murder? Gemma is back at the center of an investigation, but her CID boyfriend takes a back seat to an incompetent Detective ‘Pratt.’ Then there’s a long lost heir from China, one of the “Old Biddies” is a person of interest, a little hedgehog causes trouble, and everyone enjoys a few boxes of enchanting chocolates from Tillyhenge—a delightful reference to Hanna’s new series “Bewitched by Chocolate.” All this and murder, too?

“Four Puddings and a Funeral,” the sixth book in the Oxford Tearoom series, has been released in audio format. H.Y. Hanna’s story is clever and entertaining on its own with rich well-developed characters, but greatly enhanced by the artistic voice talent of Pearl Hewitt. Pearl masterfully mimics a variety of English dialects that illustrate the tone, personality, and emotions of the various characters adding to my enjoyment. I love Adele Clifford, gold digger extraordinaire, with a low-brow accent delightfully dropping all of her “Hs.” Then, there is Gemma’s lilting English, the Old Biddies’ proper speech like English grandmothers, and of course…Muesli’s “Merrow!” to enjoy. For me, when I am reading the books myself, I hear Pearl Hewitt’s voice in my head. I love it!

Great read

I love the characters in this book series. Jemma is a great detective at solving the murders with the help of the rambunctious old ladies!

I enjoy a good story

The story is good, as are the characters. It is interesting to have the character flaws in the lead figure, but acceptable because Hanna is showing personal growth and development in the character. She is doing a good job of that with each of the characters. Nice touch.

As always, very entertaining.

I really enjoy this series. I have trouble seeing but do crave the mystery stories and these are mysterious and funny. The narrator is very good at bringing out the best of the stories she reads with her very lovely voice.

Such an enjoyable cozy series!

Six books into the series (plus one prequel) and it's still just a clever and enjoyable as the first book. The who-what-how will keep you guessing and the antics of the Old Biddies will make you laugh out loud. The only thing I don't understand is why BritBox hasn't turned this into a series yet.

Best one yet!

The characters seem to have a bit more depth in this story. Glad to see that Muesli can now hang out at the tea shop!
