  ☕ Welcome to Lavender Leaves Teashop, where the scones are fresh, the gossip is steaming, and the patrons are mostly dead. When young entrepreneur Sophie Blake inherits a quaint English teashop from her eccentric aunt, she thinks she's found her slice of heaven. But the charming shop comes with permanent residents—three friendly ghosts who can't move on until they resolve their earthly business. When a notorious food critic drops dead after sipping their signature Earl Grey, Sophie must team up with her spectral companions to clear the shop's name. Together, they unravel a web of small-town secrets, forbidden romance, and a century-old scandal that someone is still willing to kill to protect. Perfect for fans of paranormal cozies with a dash of romance and a sprinkle of suspense.

  Have you ever wondered where horse milk vodka comes from? Or how to fight off a mob of Malaysian monkeys? Is it bad luck to wash cow poop off of your shoe? Travel vicariously with Sam across the Orient to find the funny but true answers. 
  Sam savors every local culture he encounters much like Conan O’Brian and the late Anthony Bourdain—embracing the people, their food, and especially their curiosities. His humor and infatuation with humanity’s diversity fuel each story. 
  Teaching in Korea and Vietnam since 2015, Sam uses his time out of the classroom to explore the rest of Asia. His five-book series, Itchy Feet Travel Tales in Asia, covers his adventures (and misadventures) in Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, Russia, South Korea, Thailand, and Vietnam. 
  Narrated by the author, these stories of the sublime and the surreal will have you giggling and gawking as you follow Sam through the weird and wonderful world of the East.

But, before she can unearth another old case to sink her teeth into, she must tie up some loose ends from the last one.Steve Albright, fixer for the local biker gang, has made it clear that he blames Doreen for sending his friend Penny Jordan to prison. Steve even suggests that Doreen might have set up Penny Jordan. While Doreen wouldn’t do that, she’s afraid that other people might believe Steve. He’s a popular figure in town and has a lot of friends, many of whom Doreen doesn’t want to get any closer to than she must.At least Steve doesn’t have his gun anymore, having dropped that in Doreen’s neighbor’s gardenia bed while she chased him from her yard. Which makes Doreen think that maybe it’s safe to dig into Steve’s past. Until she uncovers a connection to three arson cases from years ago and is warned off by Corporal Mack Moreau.But Doreen’s never listened to Mack before, and it has all worked out thus far, so it’s not like she has to listen to him now. Right?

  ‘A delicious story that wraps itself around your heart’ Evie Woods 
  Everyone has a story… 
  The local library is a place for community members to enjoy a cup of coffee, to read a book, to swap a book, to exchange ideas, and maybe even share a piece of themselves. It’s also a refuge for people like Hattie, looking to reconnect with her past, and Avril, trying to hide from the future, and Stuart, searching for a new purpose, and librarian Will, whose life has been spun in an unexpected direction. 
  Apart, they could not be more different from one another, but when a flyer for a writing competition draws Hattie, Avril, Stuart and Will together, they come to discover that a good story doesn't just open your eyes, but also your world… 
  For fans of Faith Hogan (The Women at Ocean's End), Laura Pearson (The Many Futures of Maddy Hart), Clare Swatman (Five Things I Love About You), Libby Page (The Lido), and Gillian Harvey (Midnight in Paris).
