The Lemon Tart Affair - No Such Thing as Accidents
A Cassandra Blake Mystery — Season 1, Episode 2
The coroner has spoken.
Eleanor Carraway's death has been ruled an accident—a tragic mistake involving a baking ingredient and a recipe gone wrong. The village is ready to move on.
Cassandra Blake isn't.
An experienced baker doesn't suddenly forget the difference between rhubarb stalks and rhubarb leaves. And when whispers from a village wake reveal a mysterious visitor, a hurried trip to a solicitor's office, and a meeting Eleanor clearly didn't enjoy, Cassandra begins to suspect that the official explanation leaves far too many questions unanswered.
As Willowcombe settles into its verdict, Cassandra opens her notebook and starts asking questions no one else seems interested in asking.
Because sometimes the most dangerous thing in a small village isn't a secret.
It's an explanation that arrives too quickly.
Episode Two of the cozy mystery serial set in the seaside village of Willowcombe, where every conversation is a clue and every "accident" deserves a second look.
