Detective Andreas Ruffner doesn’t play by the rules, and he doesn’t play well with others. With bodies piling up and a list of suspects who are way above his pay grade, the last thing he needs is a wet-behind-the-ears kid for a partner. Or babysitter. Not even if that partner is easy on the eyes. 
As Darren gains Andreas’s hard-won trust, they both realize there’s more than just mutual suspicion simmering beneath the surface. But their investigation is heating up as quickly as their relationship, and Darren has no choice but to go along with Andreas’s unorthodox—and borderline unethical—methods. As IA puts the squeeze on Darren to give up the man he’s falling for, he has to wonder—is Andreas the only cop left in this town who isn’t dirty?

Tea Cozy Conspiracy The: A Cozy...

Hang Nguyen

🫖 Tea shop owner and knitting enthusiast Chamomile "Callie" Brewster is hosting her monthly knitting circle when the town's most demanding customer is found dead in her tearoom—smothered by one of Callie's hand-knitted tea cozies. The police suspect a bizarre accident, but Callie notices the cozy features a knitting stitch pattern that was discontinued decades ago and the victim's tea cup contains traces of a rare, poisonous herb. With her tearoom temporarily closed and the local gossip boiling over, Callie must steep herself in an investigation that's anything but soothing. Assisted by her loyal knitting circle and the handsome British tea importer who supplies her shop, Callie uncovers a plot involving antique knitting patterns, rare tea smuggling, and a secret society of tea enthusiasts. From suspicious yarn blends that reveal unexpected origins to tea leaves that form cryptic messages, every cozy detail holds a clue. But when Callie discovers the victim was blackmailing members of the town's oldest families about their ancestors' involvement in a Prohibition-era tea smuggling ring, she realizes the killer is protecting a legacy warmer than any tea cozy. With the annual Tea Festival approaching and the real culprit still brewing trouble, Callie must unravel this conspiracy before her own shop gets permanently closed.
