REVIEW - GAME OF SCONES - murderous shenanigans

 

Game of Scones by Kim M Watt

Date read: 20th May 2024

My rating: 5* 

Genre I reckon: WI Cosy Mystery 

Buy link: Amazon 



Oh, my! The WI are delving into the world of politics! :O 

Usually when I say 'support our farmers' I'd mean buying their produce at reasonable rates, wonky or not. However, in this case, it's more stop them being chased off entirely!

I'm happy to report that the mayhem is a little less raucous than the last instalment. However, it is a lot more dangerous as members of the local council are getting bumped off. Is this a challenge too far even for our intrepid Alice? 

I love all these characters. They're who I turn to when I need a cosy mystery which makes me chuckle. Each WI lady is unique, as are the dragons, but they all have a cake obsession. But with all their running around, they need it. DI Adams is maybe slightly less cynical - could the countryside be growing on her? 

The hilariously inept protestors make a welcome return in this one too. 

Oh, and can I just say how much I love these covers? There are little hints when you look at them. Delightful!

Gentle, funny, dangerous mayhem! 



Always in love and light,
TL
