Family Matters

Between Christmas and New Year's, Ellen Rosings travels a landscape of doubt. Can she and Tony truly forge a permanent relationship, and will their families support or oppose their intention to marry? - - - - - - - Dear Readers – PLEASE NOTE: ~ This is not a mystery. The next Wisteria Tearoom Mystery will be A Black Place and a White Place, coming out in 2019. ~ This is not a novel. It’s a novella, about a third as long as a novel. ~ This is not “leftovers.” It is not text that was edited out of a novel. It’s all original material that is focused on the characters in the series. ~ Where it fits: this story falls between book 6, As Red as Any Blood, and book 7, A Black Place and a White Place. ~ Finally, if you have not encountered the Wisteria Tearoom books before, this is not the best one to start with. Any of the mysteries—the full-length novels—is a better choice. Since they’re sequential, I recommend starting with book 1, A Fatal Twist of Lemon. - Patrice Greenwood
