1970s. Cambridge, England.
A MYSTERIOUS MURDER AT MIDNIGHT:
When a student falls from the turrets of King’s College, Cambridge and the police rule his death as accidental, Olive consults her tarot cards - which confirm her suspicions of murder - and decides to take the investigation into her own hands.
A COSY COMMUNITY:
Fortunately, the college porter is a loyal customer of Olive’s cafe, The Biscuit Tin, and when she plies him with his favourite almond croissants and cups of Earl Grey, he reveals secrets about student societies and jealousies that might prove motive for murder.
A TRAIL OF CAKE CRUMBS:
These clues lead Olive, and her two best friends, Blythe and Millie, to Newnham College where their suspicions are confirmed and the chief suspect discovered. With the clock ticking, will Olive be able to solve the mystery before the case is closed and the truth lost forever?
A charming cozy culinary crime series set in sleepy 1970s Cambridge, England, The Biscuit Tin Murders is a sweet recipe for a delightfully comforting read, containing far too many slices of cake, along with several servings of crime, plenty of sugar and a sprinkling of magic...

Fiona, Sue, and Daisy, three retired ladies who volunteer at the local charity shop, Dogs Need Nice Homes, can’t believe their favorite customer is dead. Eighty-six-year-old Sarah Brown was found murdered in her hallway by her delivery man, a domino clutched in her hand—with a name scratched on it. When another person is found dead with a domino in their hand, and with the police making no progress, the ladies will need to help unmask a serial killer. At least they have Fiona’s scruffy-haired terrier cross to assist them.

However, for the first time in my experience the virtual voice was OK. Previously I gave up on the book read by virtual voice after 10 minutes - one time it was monotone, another it had a constant flow of intonation which had nothing to do with the rhythm of the sentence or the content. Maybe this time it was OK due to complete lack of complexity of the story. Or maybe Virtual Voice is improving.
Surprisingly, the Virtual Voice was OK
