1. Vanilla Bean Vengeance - Claire Harris loves nothing more than crafting homemade candles. She has always dreamed of one day opening a quaint candle shop in her home village of Northash, but at thirty-five, she still can't afford to take the risk. Stuck in a dead-end job at the local candle factory, and back living with her parents, Claire knows her life needs a shakeup.
The last place she expected change to come from was the factory itself, but when the owner is shockingly pushed to her death, Claire's life is flipped upside down. She isn't the only person in the village depending on the factory, so when the murder plunges the business's future into uncertainty, Claire feels compelled to solve the crime.
With the help of her retired-detective father and closest friends, Claire uncovers a tangled web of conspiracies, cover-ups, secrets, and lies, but can she uncover the truth before her candle shop dream slips through her fingers forever?

2. Black Cherry Betrayal - The body of a former beloved resident is found in an attic months after she 'left' the village, but who murdered her? Claire Harris is on the case once again!

3. Coconut Milk Casualty - A local missing man turns up dead on a narrowboat, throwing Claire Harris head first into another mystery! Can she solve the murder and finally open the candle shop of her dreams?

5. Fresh Linen Fraud - When Claire's mother is fired from the post office, all hell breaks loose in the quiet village of Northash.

6. Toffee Apple Torment - There's a woman in the garden...
Candle shop owner, Claire Harris, loves everything about Halloween, from the crisp autumn nights to the movies, music, and costumes. Her latest toffee apple candle captures the spooky season’s magic in one jar, and according to her best friend and co-worker, Damon, the candle is a ‘one sniff sensation.’ If only the shop had more customers to test that theory...
But the lack of shoppers in Northash’s chilly square becomes the least of Claire’s worries. Her elderly neighbour, Mrs Beaton, has always been an enigma, no more so than when she’s found wandering around in her nightie delivering a simple message. There’s a woman in the garden. And it doesn’t take long for Claire to find that woman, Valerie Skelton, in a freshly dug grave amongst Mrs Beaton’s weeds.
The answers to who buried the woman take Claire down a secret tunnel hidden under the village, all the way back to a 1977 wedding day tragedy where Valerie’s sister, Melanie, died under similarly confusing circumstances. And the woman in the garden isn’t the only mystery Claire finds herself unravelling. Where have Northash’s shoppers gone, what happened at that wedding in 1977 to result in the murder of two women decades apart, and just who is Mrs Beaton?
THE DETECTIVE - Claire Harris, daughter of a retired detective inspector, runs her dream candle shop in a quaint British village. Surrounded by gossiping villagers, tight-knit friends, and loyal family, Claire, in her mid-thirties, can't help sleuthing when strange things happen on her doorstep...

7. Candy Cane Conspiracies - Murder at the craft fair...
Christmas is around the corner in Northash, and candle shop owner, Claire Harris, is excited about her first craft fair. Being held in the locally historic Starfall House, Claire is sure her festive scents will fly off her stall. But she's not the only stallholder selling homemade candles, and when her main competition dies on the first day of the fair, all fingers point to Claire. Can she prove her innocence before Christmas Day?

8. Wildflower Worries - Can Claire solve the murder at the garden centre?
Spring has sprung in Northash, and for Claire Harris, the season promises new beginnings. With the garden centre blooming and her father Alan landing a part-time job as a gardener there, all seems well until Claire collaborates with the local beekeeper for her new beeswax range of wildflower candles. A seemingly innocent cup of herbal tea seals the beekeeper's fate, leading Claire into a honeycomb of betrayal, motives, and deadly flora.

9. Frosted Plum Fears - A killer plum pudding plot sends a village reeling in this twisted tale of festive ambition and murder.
A quaint village turned upside down. A giant plum pudding and a local chef's ambition spark festivities in the sleepy town of Northash. But when candle shop owner, Claire Harris, finds the chef stabbed in the back, it seems his attempt to break a decades-old plum pudding record has led to a bitter and untimely demise.
As shocking secrets seep to the surface, a tangled web of lies, debts, jealousy, and obsession comes to light. With a killer on the loose and suspects piling up, Claire taps into her sleuthing instincts to unravel the murderous mess. However, separating fact from speculation proves tricky, even for Claire's keen eye and nose for trouble. False accusations send her down twisting paths that bring her no closer to the elusive truth.
With the clock ticking down to the New Year, the mystery only deepens. Another attack rocks the village, stirring Claire's worst fears. She pushes forward in her perilous hunt for answers, determined to expose the culprit and restore order amidst the plum pudding chaos. But with so many loose threads hanging and dangerous tensions mounting, will Claire tie it all together in time? Or will the new year dawn with the murderous secrets remaining buried?

As Claire, along with Granny Greta and partner Ryan, arrive in Peridale for a seemingly jovial bowls tournament, the event takes a dark turn with the murder of the Peridale Bowls Team leader.
