Review of Tea and Treachery by Vicki Delany

Setting: Cape Cod, Massachusetts

I enjoyed this book.  The characters were interesting, and the plot was pretty good.
Lily is a pastry chef, running her own newly opened Tea Room, next to her grandmother's Victorian home in Cape Cod. Her grandmother, Rose, is running it as a Bed & Breakfast.  
Rose finds out that the house next door is going to be sold, and the person interested in buying it wants to tear it down and build a hotel, if he gets it rezoned.  

Rose has a public argument with the owner, developer, and one of the councilmen voting on the zoning, and the next day the developer is found dead on her property.  Rose becomes the main suspect if the man was pushed, rather than accidentally falling down some steps from the bluff to the beach.
Lily and her best friend Bernie, along with Rose try to determine, if the death was not an accident, who else would be a good suspect.
Looking forward to reading additional books in the series.
