A Scone To Die For (Oxford Tearoom Mysteries ~ Book 1) - Plot & Excerpts
I was glad to see that Fletcher looked slightly less distressed as he came out of the kitchen and felt grateful that Devlin had obviously acted with sensitivity. However, my goodwill towards him vanished when he came back in, after a hasty conference with the pathologist, and told me that I would have to shut the tearoom for the rest of the weekend. “What? You can’t be serious!” There was no sign of humour on his face. “I’m perfectly serious. This is now a crime scene and until the SOCO unit can go over the place, we can’t have a dozen tourists trampling around destroying evidence.” “But… he was found outside in the courtyard! Can’t you just fence off that area and leave the rest of the tearoom as normal?” He shook his head. “But… but weekends are our busiest times! I can’t shut the tearoom!” I glanced out the windows. Already, I could see a crowd of curious bystanders forming outside.
