A Cuppa Comeuppance, by J. A. Adams
A delightful cozy mystery for fans of Agatha Christie’s detectives and stories set in quirky locales.
Dolores Dunn, a retired librarian, is determined to prove she’s not past her prime. Now working part-time at a local bakery, she’s thrust into a real-life investigation when a regular customer is murdered. After boasting to her best friend, Mable, that she might become a spy, Dolores is deputized by two local detectives to keep watch for suspicious activity.
Dolores and Mable, two spirited women in their sixties, tackle their sleuthing with humor and determination. Between a near-death poisoning and a kidnapping, Dolores is determined to solve both the bakery murder and the attempt on her life. By the end, she proves she’s far from “over the hill” and ready for whatever comes next.
With plenty of light-hearted twists, suspense, and banter, A Cuppa Comeuppance is perfect for readers who enjoy cozy mysteries full of charm, humor, and strong-willed protagonists.
