Agony of the Leaves by Laura Childs is the latest in the Tea Shop Mystery Series, reuniting us with Theodosia Browning and the crew of the Indigo Tea Shop in Charleston.
This time, Theodosia is hot on the trail of the murderer of her ex-boyfriend Parker Scully. These books are formulaic and pretty silly, but full of fantastic tea lore that I love. So, if you're looking for something light to read with a good cup of tea, it can be a satisfying choice.
Child's book is not to be confused with the wonderful non-fiction book The Agony of the Leaves: The Ecstasy of My Life with Tea, by tea expert Helen Gustafson. This is a wonderful book, highly recommended for tea lovers.
