Proving Time

By Millie Bramley

Eliza Hartwell's bakery is finally open, her sourdough is finally worth eating, and Millbrook is finally starting to feel like home.

Then the village f te arrives, and with it Camilla Vance: nationally feared food critic, celebrity judge, and a woman whose reviews have closed restaurants, destroyed livelihoods, and left a trail of ruined careers from London to Edinburgh. Within hours of arriving she has managed to offend virtually everyone in the village.

When Camilla collapses on the village green after eating one of Eliza's lavender scones, the finger of suspicion points squarely at the baker. Her recipe. Her ingredients. Her competition entry.

With her bakery sealed as a crime scene for the second time in a year, Eliza must clear her own name while uncovering which of her neighbours is hiding a motive sharp enough to kill, and a secret patient enough to wait for exactly the right moment.

Proving Time is the second book in the Death & Sourdough series. Best served with strong tea and a scone you made yourself.
