Tabitha Tickham and the Cake Crisis

A country house murder mystery of sorts, for Daughters and their Mothers, and anyone else who wants to learn the correct way to eat a scone.
Violet has to prepare for her Home Ec assessment, but her Mother is running a murder mystery weekend. With a house full of guests and her sister Tabitha 'Kitty' Tickham playing at detectives, how will she ever get the work done? And if the dog did not destroy Mother's cake, who did? Did she really see someone lurking down at the gatehouse? Which one is the bay tree, and what does nutmeg look like anyway? Should self-confessed teachers be allowed out into society?
All these questions must be answered before the weekend is over, with lessons to be learned along the way about baking, loyalty and just how strong a Mother can be.
