In Peppermint Peril: A Book Tea Shop Mystery by Joy Avon

She's catering a big event at a home she used to frequent as a child.  The lady who owns the house is going to read her new will to them.  Before that happens a diamond goes missing and the gardener is found dead in the conservatory.  Maybe they shouldn't have catered this event!

Crooked Lane Books and Net Galley let me read this book for review (thank you).  It will be published November 23rd.

The man was killed with a screwdriver so they go after the handyman first.  Then they go after Ben who walked by the conservatory.  The cops are jumping into solutions that don't work out.  Callie decides she better do some sleuthing of her own.  She finds out the gardener was not a nice man and he was blackmailing several people.  But it wasn't just him.  Who else was involved?

This was an interesting cozy mystery that I enjoyed.  Why don't you give it a try?
