I love The Teashop mysteries by Laura Childs, she has a couple of other series that is murder mystery, the Orleans one is scrapbooking themed as the sleuth runs a scrapbook store, and the Cackleberry series is about a group of women running a diner that focuses on egg dishes and they get into murder mystery too..nice cozy stuff with recipes. Another line I like is the Mary Russel and Sherlock Holmes mystery series, it starts with The Beekeeper’s Apprentice. There is a great detective series ..The Cukoo’s Calling and that one was actually written by J.K Rowling under Robert Galbraith. It’s really good and I wouldn’t have thought of Rowling when I read it.
