A Pasty In A Pear Tree

For the second year running, a Christmas Wonderland is taking place in the extensive and beautiful grounds of Pentrillick House in Cornwall, where a small fair, a fortune teller, and a lakeside caf run by a French patissier are amongst the many attractions.



A week after its opening, Hetty and Lottie arrive in the village to take up residence in Primrose Cottage. The young-at-heart twin sisters have much to look forward to: carol singing, festive baking, and the knees-up in the Crown and Anchor on New Year's Eve.



With decorations up everywhere, it seems that everything in the village is ready for the jollifications to begin. But then, just fifteen days before Christmas, someone is found dead in the grounds of Pentrillick House, and the locals and Wonderland's visiting tradespeople are faced with the possibility of there being a murderer in their midst.



'A Pasty in a Pear Tree' is the second in the light-hearted Pentrillick Mystery series located on the south coast of Cornwall.
