"I confess, this series is laugh-out-loud funny! Completely creative, and with recipes!" - Goodreads reviewer

A picture-perfect Yorkshire village.

You know the sort.

Village greens. Dry-stone walls. Summer bake sales.

A surprisingly high body count.

And dragons ...

Toot Hansell nestles in the fells of the Yorkshire Dales, peaceful, river-girt, and ruled (in a subtle yet oddly irresistible manner) by the ladies of the Women's Institute. It's the sort of village where one might expect the greatest drama of the year would be someone criticising a scone at the summer fete.

However.

Toot Hansell is also home to dragons. Dragons with a fondness for barbecues, tea, mince pies, and investigations.

Because Toot Hansell also has a surprisingly high crime rate, and neither the Women's Institute nor the dragons are going to stand for that sort of thing. They've been watching Poirot. And one can't wait on the police to do everything ...

Grab a cuppa and settle in with the first four books in the Beaufort Scales cozy mystery (with dragons) series!

And mind the cat. They're always up to something.

Baking Bad

"Baking Bad is a total romp that any dragon-lover not stuck in the smaug (see what I did there?) will love. Get your talons on this book now and enjoy." - Goodreads reviewer

A tranquil village. A poisoned cupcake. A murdered vicar.

A simple case - or it should be. But all clues point to the local Women's Institute, and Detective Inspector Adams is about to discover there's much more to Toot Hansell than bake sales and jam making.

There's the dragons, for a start ...

Yule Be Sorry

"... another warm and funny caper in the Yorkshire Dales, a celebration of friendship, and a joy to read." - Goodreads reviewer

A festive tale of kidnappings, explosions, and stolen turkeys.

One should never meddle in the affairs of dragons, but someone has been doing just that. They've been making dragon scale baubles that are nothing short of lethal, and kidnapping delivery drivers all over the Yorkshire Dales. And there's a limit to what the police can do when they don't believe in dragons ...

A Manor of Life & Death

"Hilarious, engaging, exciting and touching by turns (and sometimes all at once) and of course bolstered by oodles of tea and cake." - Goodreads reviewer

Warring staff. "Accidental" poisonings. Topiary of dubious intent.

Throw in the full complement of the Toot Hansell Women's Institute and dragons doing yoga on the terrace, and DI Adams is starting to wonder if she might have made a small misjudgement signing up for this particular spa weekend in the country.

And that's before the dead body in the sauna and the storm that cuts them off from the rest of the world ...

Game of Scones

"Each installment of the Beaufort Scales series just gets better and better." - Goodreads reviewer

Bribery. Corruption. Murder. Who said local politics were boring?

Suspicious deaths on the Skipton city council don't sound as though they should have anything at all to do with the Toot Hansell Women's Institute, and they certainly shouldn't involve dragons. Or not in the mind of DI Adams, anyway.

The Women's Institute and dragons may have different ideas, of course ...
