The marmalade murders
(Book)

The competition is friendly and just a little fierce at the annual Llanelen agricultural show as town and country folk gather for the outdoor judging of farm animals and indoor judging of cakes, pies, pastries, chutneys, jams and jellies, along with vegetables, fruit and flowers. But this year, there's a new show category: murder.

The competition is friendly and just a little fierce at the annual Llanelen agricultural show. Town and country folk gather for the judging of farm animals, cakes, pies, vegetables, fruit, and more. Local artist and spa owner Penny Brannigan agrees to help with the intake of the domestic arts entries and to judge the children's pet competition on show day. Then the president of the Welsh Women's Guild disappears, and a carrot cake entered in the competition goes missing. A black Labrador Retriever discovers the body of the missing woman under the baked goods table. A newcomer to town, a transgender woman, is suspected. Penny sets out to find the real killer.
