Mystery Cozy
In the latest Tea Shop Mystery from New York Times
bestselling author Laura Childs, Theodosia Browning
attends a “Rat Tea,” where the mice will play...at murder.
When Indigo Tea Shop owner Theodosia Browning is invited by
Doreen Briggs, one of Charleston’s most prominent hostesses,
to a “Rat Tea,” she is understandably intrigued. As servers
dressed in rodent costumes and wearing white gloves offer
elegant finger sandwiches and fine teas, Theo learns these
parties date back to early twentieth-century Charleston,
where the cream of society would sponsor so-called rat teas
to promote city rodent control and better public health.
But this party goes from odd to chaotic when a fire starts
at one of the tables and Doreen’s entrepreneur husband
suddenly goes into convulsions and drops dead. Has his
favorite orange pekoe tea been poisoned? Theo smells a rat.
The distraught Doreen soon engages Theo to pursue a discreet
inquiry into who might have murdered her husband. As Theo
and her tea sommelier review the guest list for suspects,
they soon find themselves drawn into a dangerous game of cat
and mouse...
