When Peyton Hart takes over Steeped in Mysteary, her late mother's cherished tea shop in the picturesque town of Wallshire, she hopes to honor a legacy she never truly felt part of-and maybe even find a place to belong.Instead, she's steeped in a mystery when a well-known literary critic is found dead at the town's beloved Manuscript Festival after a heated confrontation between the two.Determined to protect the shop and the town, Peyton plunges into the eccentric world of authors, rival booksellers, and festival-goers-where everyone has a story to tell, and some would kill to control the narrative. Her suspects range from an obsessed fan whose devotion teeters on dangerous, to a debut author humiliated by the victim's scathing review, and the festival organizer desperate to protect the event's pristine reputation. Each holds their secrets close-just like their favorite tea blends-and Peyton must navigate lies, rivalries, and a slow-burning tension with Levi to uncover the killer before her second chance is snatched away.Death by Darjeeling is a charming and twist-filled cozy mystery that invites readers to unravel the clues alongside a heroine discovering that every new beginning-like the perfect cup of tea-takes time to steep.
