Ming Tea Murder
by Laura Childs

It’s scones and scandal for Indigo Tea Shop owner
Theodosia Browning in this Tea Shop Mystery from New York
Times
bestselling author Laura Childs.

Normally Theodosia wouldn’t attend a black-tie affair
for all the tea in China. But she can hardly say no to her
handsome boyfriend, Max, who directs public relations for
the Gibbes Museum in Charleston. Max has organized an
amazing gala opening for an exhibit of a genuine
eighteenth-century Chinese teahouse, and the créme de
la créme of Charleston society is invited.

Max even rented a photo booth to give guests a memory of the
occasion. But Theodosia makes a grim discovery behind the
booth’s curtains: the body of museum donor Edgar
Webster. When Max becomes a suspect, it’s up to
Theodosia to examine the life of the fallen philanthropist
and find out who really wanted him to pay up…

INCLUDES DELICIOUS RECIPES AND TEA TIME TIPS!

Originally published May 2015 in hardcover.
