I loved this book! Certainly I have enjoyed other books by Julia Buckley, but in this one I was immediately drawn into the story and in love with the characters. Hana, her mother and grandmother run a teashop specializing in European high tea when there is a death there during a tea for a Hungarian Ladies group. Charmingly written and immersed in Hungarian culture. There's even a touch of the paranormal as Hana realizes she has a touch of extreme intuitiveness like her grandmother. Highly recommended!

This was a great book. I really liked the characters, the main character was smart all the way around and I really liked her. And the lead detective was great and trusted her without being like you do everything. And I loved Hana’s family because they were really present and adorable. The mystery was interesting and had a good pace for piecing things together.
