Murder on the Welcome Mat: A Neighborhood Tea Shop Cozy Mystery

About Murder on the Welcome Mat: A Neighborhood Tea Shop Cozy Mystery

A new neighbor arrives. A welcome basket makes the rounds. And someone ends up dead before the street finishes saying “nice to meet you.

”Clara Wynn knows Everhollow loves a tidy story. It’s why she keeps her head down and pours comfort into teacups at Everhollow Remedies. But when the block’s welcome tradition turns lethal, the story the neighborhood wants is the easiest one: accident, stress, heartbreak.

Nothing to see here. Please keep the group chat positive. Clara doesn’t buy it.

The basket is the weapon, and the route is the alibi. Every smiling handoff hides opportunity, and every “helpful” neighbor has access to more than cookies and kindness. As Clara digs, the real shock lands: the dead person might not have been the intended target at all.

Someone wasn’t trying to kill a stranger. They were trying to silence a witness.
