Danger With Lashings Of Caviar was published on 20th March 2024. My thanks to the author for sending me a copy to review and to Random Things Tours for inviting me to take part on the tour.





Synopsis

When Tabby wakes up in a rubbish skip - again - she decides the time has come for action.

The bad guys might have got away with it so far but it's time to turn the tables.

With the help of her mum, a disgraced policeman, a farting dog, and two homeless friends Tabby is determined to bring the handsome criminal millionaire to justice.


And she was only supposed to be making a few sandwiches.


My Review

This is the first book in the Tabitha's Table mystery series and if this first book is anything to go by it should prove to be a tongue in cheek cosy mystery set of books that will have you laughing out loud. At times you will be asking yourself "Really" whilst at other times you will be taking in the light hearted way that it is written throughout.

Some of the characters appear a little far fetched but that may just be because I appear to have led a sheltered life away from potential drug barons with loadsa money. Other aspects, like feeding the homeless, really point out what life is like at the other end of the spectrum and the huge difference between the haves and the have nots - one wanting the best caviar at whatever the cost - the other grateful for sandwiches left over at the end of the day.

The super sleuths of Tabby, Caro and Ben will make you laugh, shake your head in disbelief at times but enjoy their plotting and scheming all the more for it. The idea of being taken for a picnic on the headland in an Aston Martin , then taken home by a helicopter will have you laughing at the unreality of this tongue in cheek storyline whilst you wile away a few hours finding out what Tabby discovers about Jack Billington and his past whilst also trying to sort out Kelly and her love life.

An entertaining read for cosy mystery lovers.

The Delegate by Ali Carter   What a tangled web she weaved…   The Delegate by Ali Carter was  published on 29th November 2022 by Matador. My thanks to the author and publisher who sent me a copy and Random Book Tours for inviting me to take part on the tour.      Synopsis Charlotte… Having been sprung by Mafia family the Zandini’s on a day release the previous year, and managing to ‘despatch’ one of their enemies in New York (plus a few extras), ex killer G.P> Charlotte Peterson was now securely back inside Rampton high Security Hospital. However, her work was unfinished and a second escape quite out of the question. It was why she had the need of a delegate. A killer to complete a very important job…someone she’d control. Annie… She had found the perfect person in Annie. A woman who felt cheated. A woman who was mentally and emotionally scarred in exactly the same way Charlotte had been throughout her own life. Annie was fully ripe for manipulation in t...

 Tristan /Yseulte  by Harry Bonelle Tristan/ Yseult by Harry Bonelle  was published on 31st january 2024 by Unicorn. My thanks to the author and publisher for sending me a copy to review and to Random Things Tours  for inviting me to take part on the tour. Synopsis Tristan/Yseult is a narrative poem about the yearning for oneness in a world split into fragments. A duel on an empty island sets the course for one of the greatest romances ever told. As the lovers of legend meet, something new is born, and something eternal is revealed. Their names will forever be spoken as one. This modern retelling of Tristan and Yseult sheds a stark light on the beauty of the Celtic tale. “Harry Bonelle’s new version taps into the dark and furious energy of the old saga, surging and juddering with life. Bonelle’s actor’s training has encouraged him to liberate the performance piece that its original author must have intended. Thrilling on the page, but even more so spoken loud....
