The Tea by the Sea Series

“A satisfying cozy with a beautifully described setting and a cast of charming, small-town characters. Share this new series with fans of Laura Childs’ Tea Shop mysteries.”
Booklist

“This second entry in Vicki Delany’s series demonstrates the author’s innate skill as a storyteller. Her characters are a little edgy, just enough to maintain suspense. The mystery is well-conceived, and the pace holds readers’ attention. Hopefully, visiting Lily, Rose and Bernie will become a regular event.” – Reviewing the Evidence

“This is one cozy series not to miss!” – Fresh Fiction

If you’re anything like I am (and I know a lot of you cozy readers are), you are going to absolutely love Tea & Treachery. It’s got all of the things I love about cozy mystery books: quirky characters, an idyllic setting, animals, food, family, friends, and an engrossing mystery. – Christy’s Cozy Cor
