Résumé

"Agatha Raisin meets the Great British Bake Off in Foraging for Murder. Simon Whaley blends bucolic eccentricities, village gossip, food festivals and cold-blooded murder in his latest cosy mystery." - Bookish JottingsBook DescriptionMORTIFORDE'S FOOD GESTIVAL IS A RECIPE FOR MURDERThree butchers. Two deaths. One four-hundred-year-old grudge. It's Aldermaston's first food festival as the Eighth Marquess of Mortiforde and it's not going well.
One butcher is missing. Another has been threatened. And the Vegetarian Society has been sent a meaty ultimatum. Meanwhile, Lady Mortiforde desperately needs her husband to find some wild boar meat for her savoury pie entry into the festival's Bake Off competition. When the Council's Chief Archivist disappears, along with the Food History Marquee's star attraction, a seventeenth-century recipe book, Aldermaston has all the ingredients of a murder mystery that's been marinating for over four hundred years.
Can he find the missing butchers before it's too late? Will Lady Mortiforde avoid a soggy bottom in the Bake Off competition? And why do all the butchers take their pet pigs for a walk in the woods at night?"We are in safe hands with Whaley a man unafraid of capturing the class-based absurdities of British life." - PAJ Newman"When describing Foraging for Murder to both Spouse-Critter and one of my besties, I found myself saying that it reads like Agatha Christie did the plot outline, handed it to the cast of Monty Python and walked away!" - Puzzle Paws Blog"Aldermaston had me laughing a few times!" The Page Ladies"Foraging for Murder is a hilarious, uplifting and thrilling murder mystery sprinkled with plenty of tension, intrigue and suspense to keep readers chewing their nails and on the edge of their seats until the end." Bookish Jottings"Full of culinary delights and dark deeds past and present, it is jam packed full of wonderful and very likeable eccentric characters with a deliciously wicked streak of humour running through it." The Word Is Out"Wow.
Foraging for Murder is a fantastic book. It's stuffed with some very British quirkiness, rival butchers, an obnoxious new Chief Executive for the local Council, and a slightly bumbling, but good-hearted, member of the nobility, his wife, his eminently competent butler, as well as his extremely eccentric brother." MJ Porter
