Murder in the Tea Leaves

About the book

When Theodosia Browning looks at the tea leaves while filming Dark Fortunes, the situation goes from eerie to even worse. As the lights dim and the cameras roll, red sparks fly when the director is killed in a mysterious electrical accident.

But was it truly an accident? Despite the shock of the cast and crew, no one seems to have witnessed anything. When Theodosia's friend Delaine becomes the main suspect, Theodosia starts her own secret investigation. The question remains: who among this Hollywood group had murder in mind? The screenwriter is self-centered, the lead actress is trying to breach her contract, the new director appears uncaring, and the deceitful Hollywood agent can't be trusted.

While juggling a Breakfast at Tiffany's Tea, a Poetry Tea, and trying to launch her chocolate line, Theodosia tirelessly gathers clues and delves into the seemingly ghostly Brittlebank Manor where the crime occurred. Just as she prepares to uncover the truth, a Charleston Film Board member is also murdered, throwing everything into chaos. However, this cunning killer will do whatever it takes to cover up their actions, as Theodosia discovers during a perilous stakeout with her tea sommelier, Drayton.
