Welcome to Buttersley's Cozy Culinary Mystery Series​

 

Welcome to The Merang Mysteries, a charming series of British cozy mysteries packed with witty banter, eccentric characters, and the kind of twisty puzzles that make for a perfect afternoon read. If you love a mystery filled with friendship, food, and heart — but without the gore — this series is for you.

 

Meet the Sleuth: Helen Merang, Confectioner and Nosy Investigator

 

At the heart of it all is Helen Merang, a dedicated local businesswoman in her early thirties. She has poured her dreams (and life savings) into Merangs Confectioners and Tea Room located in a prime spot on Buttersley's High Street.

 

Set in the picturesque, gossip-driven small town of Buttersley, Helen is trying to navigate a new life and a new business. Unfortunately, she has a knack for stumbling over secrets and, occasionally, dead bodies.

 

The Series is About: 

• The Protagonist: Helen, the amateur sleuth, who must balance serving "lashings of cake, coffee, and afternoon tea" with uncovering small-town scandals.

• The World: A classic British village full of eccentric characters and charm, where "gossip travels faster than the local bus". 

• The Promise: Twisty murderous puzzles, British humour, and a touch of romance.

 

Featured Book: The Murder Above Merangs (Book 1)

The tranquility of Buttersley is shattered when disaster strikes in Helen’s new tea room, and she discovers a dead body in the flat directly above her premises. This discovery immediately plunges her into her first investigation. Helen, the amateur investigator, must rely on her sharp instincts—and her loyal circle of friends—to find the killer before she is framed, and her dream of running a successful confectionery shop comes crashing down.
