About this listen
1970s. Cambridge, England.
A LIZARD, A MONKEY & A MURDER:
When a tyrannical businessman is murdered Olive discovers that half the citizens of Cambridge wanted him dead. And finding which one actually killed him is like trying to find a poisonous needle in a murderous haystack.
A COSY COMMUNITY:
Events take a turn for the bizarre when the victim’s son begs Olive to rescue his kidnapped lizard. Are the two crimes connected? As Olive delves deeper into the case, discovering just how monstrous the victim was, she starts to question whether or not she wants to solve the case at all.
A TRAIL OF CAKE CRUMBS:
Meanwhile, Hugo is falling in love with her and Olive is struggling with her own deepening feelings and her fears of loving him back…
A charming cozy culinary crime series set in sleepy 1970s Cambridge, England, The Biscuit Tin Murders is a sweet recipe for a delightfully comforting read, containing far too many slices of cake, along with several servings of crime, plenty of sugar and just a sprinkling of magic...
The 3rd in The Biscuit Tin Murders cosy culinary mystery series. If you enjoy stories set in sleepy English towns with warmth, wit and whimsy as their main ingredients, along with twists to keep you guessing and subplots to make you smile, if you love Agatha Christie, Richard Osman & the Reverend Richard Coles then you’ll love these delicious tales...

When a freak accident hospitalizes Marty Golden's sister and condemns him to babysitter duty, he thinks it's just another case of hardwired bad luck in Silicon Valley. Until a suspicious murder suggests the mishap was no mere coincidence. Something must be done. Too bad this quirky, fashion-backward uncle isn't exactly hero material.
