Can you play hide-and-seek when you're dead?
A flood at Helen's tea room set off a grisly chain of events. Maybe breaking into the neighbour's apartment wasn't such a good idea after all? That naked dead man didn't shove himself in the cupboard. And now he's fallen out and is lying at her feet.
The police are ringing the doorbell. There's no other exit, and she can't escape. Can Helen convince them she's just a nosy parker, or will they follow the evidence and arrest her for murder?
The Murder Before Merangs is one of a series of culinary crime mysteries featuring amateur sleuth, Helen Merang. Each book leads to the next but can also be read as a standalone. Written in British English with a few sweary words, mild profanity and peril.
