About the book
Join in on the fun with this humorous cosy-crime caper where a spirited, unscrupulous book dealer utilizes her unique talents to track down a murderer who is desperate to keep hidden the secrets of the yoga-obsessed individuals at a West London ashram.
After a collection of rare, nearly-impossible-to-find yoga books goes missing from the ashram, the leaders enlist the help of Cordelia, a detective known for her love of paperbacks, in hopes of retrieving them - a situation made slightly uncomfortable by the fact that they had previously banned her from yoga classes due to her marijuana-selling activities. What starts off as a quest to locate the lost books soon evolves into a homicide inquiry as members of the ashram start dropping dead one by one - victims of blows to the head with a whiskey bottle or poisonous curry.
Can Cordelia uncover the identity of the murderer and bring them to justice before they can put an end to her detective work once and for all?
