Fourth in the Stella and Lyndy mystery series, this finds the newlyweds beginning their honeymoon at the Majestic Hotel in York. They investigate a murder in the hotel which the police originally label an accident. Who killed the owner of England‘s largest confectionery and stole a family recipe? Was it family, employees or someone else? Enjoyable addition to the series. 4.25/5⭐️

A fun addition to the series, although the mystery is at times overshadowed by the romance. A #NetGalley review for #KensingtonBooks. If you‘re interested you can read my full review at https://mrskinvestigates.wordpress.com/2022/09/03/murder-at-the-majestic-hotelby...
