Baking Bad: A Cozy Mystery (With Dragons)

A tranquil village.

A poisoned cupcake.

A murdered vicar.

A simple case - or it should be. But all clues point to the Toot Hansell Women's Institute, and Detective Inspector Adams is about to discover there's much more to the W.I. than just bake sales and jam making.

Alice Martin, RAF Wing Commander (Ret.), and current chair of the Women's Institute, knows the ladies of the W.I. are not guilty. But she has a bigger problem. Toot Hansell has a large and dragonish secret, and she needs to keep the police well away from it. Plus she'd really rather not be arrested for murder. Again.

Meanwhile, Beaufort Scales, High Lord of the Cloverly dragons and survivor of the days of knights and dragon hunts, knows even better than Alice that the modern dragon only survives as long as no one knows they exist. But he also knows friends don't let friends face murder inquiries alone. Beaufort fully intends to Get Involved.

This investigation is about to take on dragonish proportions.

Best put the kettle on...

About the Author
Watt, Kim M. M.: - "Hello lovely people! I'm Kim, and I write funny, magical books that offer a little escape from the serious stuff in the world and leave you smiling. They're about tea-drinking dragons solving mysteries in sleepy Yorkshire villages, and baking-obsessed reapers setting up baby ghoul petting cafes, and ladies of a certain age joining the Apocalypse on their Vespas. They're about friendship, and loyalty, and lifting each other up, and will let you step outside of life as we know it for a little. Most of all, they'll remind you that life, and people (of all sorts of descriptions) can be very wonderful indeed. There are also snarky cats, because that's how cats are, and not even magical books can change that. But we love them anyway, right? Right. *Eyes the Little Furry Muse apprehensively.* Originally from New Zealand, I've lived and worked in various (usually warm) countries around Europe, the Pacific and the Caribbean. I've been writing since before I could do joined-up letters, and with any luck my stories have improved, even if my handwriting has actually become worse. Seriously, it's like secret code. I currently live in France with my very understanding SO and the Little Furry Muse (Layla), who inspires the ruder - sorry - more majestic cats in my stories. I read a lot, write a lot, and consume far too much tea and cake to be healthy. I'd love to hear from you with with your thoughts, comments, favourite cake recipes, story ideas (I take requests), or just to say hi!"
