2. A Taste to Die for
Chefs can be arrogant, competitive and downright murderous at times, so when Bath International Taste Extravaganza (BITE for short) organize a best chef competition, Honey Driver, the Hotels’ Association police liaison officer, senses trouble.Her instinct proves correct when the winning chef is found dead in his own kitchen. Then a second, and a third…On top of this Honey’s mother has fallen for the charms – and the white Rolls Royce – of a wealthy butcher, supplier to the catering trade. Is he really after her mother’s body – well preserved as it is – or is he after the hotel’s meat account? Honey’s own relationship with dishy DCI Doherty is on hold. He’s pooped – too tired even to fall for Honey’s ample charms. As for the murderer, is this a case of past grievances? And once it’s solved, will Honey finally get her man?
3. Walking with Ghosts
Hotel owner and police liaison officer Honey Driver is about to find out that the living are more terrifying than the dead. Bath’s answer to Miss Marple; though younger and fuller of figure – accompanies professor of the paranormal, Mary Jane, on a ghost walk. The ghosts fail to appear, but one of the walkers is later found hanging from the rafters of an old shop.The supernatural has nothing to do with the murder, but it is connected to the past and the international demand for old artefacts. Honey has two other big problems; the first is that she’s being stalked by a man in wellies riding a motorbike. The second is that her mother is threatening to move closer to her hotel. No guesses as to which concerns her the most. But does Honey have a ghost of a chance of solving her latest case…?
5. Deadly Lampshades
When Honey Driver decides to give the Green River Hotel a makeover, she didn’t envisage her interior designer Philippe Fabiere getting choked to death with an antique lavatory flush handle. It also turns out that his store room has been completely cleared out of French antique artefacts – including a painting of a scantily clad woman that Honey had purchased. When traces of deadly nightshade are found in Philippe’s system the finger of suspicion points at others in his profession. Is this a case of professional jealousy, or is there something more unique and more sinister afoot? And what have the Russians at St Margaret’s Court Hotel got to do with it? Why have they cut the wires on the security cameras on the cottage opposite their main gates? And what about the German couple who sit around reception, him helping out the workmen whilst his wife sits knitting? Who is it that’s so fond of deadly nightshade?
6. Murder by Mudpack
When Lady Macrottie is found submerged in what should have been a therapeutic mud bath, the finger of suspicion points at the Beauty Spot Health and Beauty Clinic. Honey Driver, Bath hotelier and part-time Crime Liaison Officer, is booked in for Botox, beautifying . . . and a little snooping on the side. Daughter Lindsey is left to hold the fort at the hotel, and the worst possible thing happens: the Hotel Inspector arrives! But the situation gets even sticker when he’s found dead in the morning . . .
7. Wicked Words
A sense of justice is felt amongst Bath hoteliers when an unpopular hotel reviewer is found dead stuffed inside a giant teddy at the bottom of an open grave. As the Hotels’ Association police liaison officer, Honey Driver is expected to help solve his murder – even though she’s something of a suspect herself. On top of that, she’s lumbered with a distant friend’s incontinent dog – and when it gets kidnapped, she hopes it doesn’t come back . . .
8. The Ghost of Christmas Past
It’s a Dickensian Christmas in Bath; frost lies thick on the ground and a white mist drifts through the narrow alleys. The Green River Hotel is hosting the very last office Christmas party of the season. The employees of the firm arrive and seem shell shocked that their miserly employer, frequently referred to as Scrooge, has paid for everything. How come the change of heart? They never get the chance to ask because old ‘Scrooge’ doesn’t turn up for the party. A deadly deed has been done, and it’s up to Honey Driver and her darling DCI Doherty to solve the Christmas caper.
9. Death of a Diva
Selling the Green River Hotel and relocating to the country seems a good idea at the time – that is until Honey is given a guided tour of a country mansion suitable for conversion. Old houses for such purposes are usually better without bodies stuffed up the chimney. The fact that she comes this close to a murder is quite off putting. So, should she press ahead, or stick to the job in hand? Doherty is on hand of course as the world of a TV diva and up market estate agents is laid bare.
10. Blood and Broomsticks
An old friend of Honey Driver’s is unfortunate enough to have their birthday at Hallowe’en, and can’t resist making it a fancy dress party. Honey had planned for DCI Doherty, her policeman boyfriend, to go with her; he might have done if he wasn’t more than a bit peeved that she smashed up his sports car.
Dressed appropriately, Honey attends the party at Moss End Hotel alone. The food is awful, the booze practically non-existent, and the complaints are loud and clear. The owners, Mr and Mrs Crook – amateurs who think themselves better than the professionals – are nowhere to be found and all the doors are locked.
Once the revellers manage to open the doors, the Crooks are found, but are in no condition to deal with complaints. They’re dead – murdered – and Honey and Doherty team up once more to investigate.
