Es muss nicht immer Mord sein

The warm, inviting atmosphere seems to slow down the narrative but adds so much charm. Did the author intentionally craft the setting to create a specific mood?

The focus on relationships and local traditions made the story feel cozy and personal. I wonder if that’s what Laura Childs aimed for or if the mystery was meant to be more central.

The tea theme adds such a unique flavor to the mystery genre. I’d love to know if the author has a personal passion for tea or if it was a strategic setting choice.
