Two witches, one haunted house... and a dash of murder. Will Lucy find the killer in time? Or will she be Buttercup's next resident ghost? It's Halloween in Buttercup, Texas, and reporter-turned-farmer Lucy Resnick is up to her ears in more than goats and wayward cows. Not only has her well dried up, but it turns out the old house Lucy recently moved to the farm has a reputation for spooks... and they are disturbingly active. Then a tarot card reading at a local mead winery foretells death... and minutes later, exotic game ranch owner Bug Wharton goes belly-up. Cause of death? Murder, by a fatal dose of bee venom.
When the dimwitted sheriff fingers local witch and mead winery owner Serafine Alexandre, Lucy gets involved... and soon discovers that all kinds of things are brewing in Buttercup.
And some of them are deadly.

1920s gadabout Anty Boisjoly takes on his first case when his Oxford chum is facing the gallows, accused of the murder of his wealthy uncle.Not one but two locked-room murders later, Boisjoly's pitting his wits and witticisms against a subversive butler, a senile footman, a single-minded detective-inspector, an errant goat, and the eccentric conventions of the pastoral Sussex countryside to untangle a multi-layered mystery of secret bequests, ancient writs, love triangles, revenge, and a teasing twist in the final paragraph.The Case of the Canterfell Codicil is a classic, cosy, locked-room mystery with an improbable plot inspired by Agatha Christie and prose in the style of an homage to PG Wodehouse.Can such a niche pastiche work? Let's let the readers decide...Part Way Through I Bought the Entire SeriesI got the first book via Kindle Unlimited. I was about a quarter of the way through it and was enjoying it so much that I returned the K. U. copy and purchased all 4 volumes for my permanent library. ??????????Brilliantly wittyYes to the Agatha Christie meets PG Wodehouse comparisons, but it gets even better with a soupcon of Raymond Chandler, Oscar Wilde, and HH Munro added to the mix. ??????????A delight!I just love Anty Boisjoly! Great character, charming voice. The locked room part of the mystery was excellent, very reminiscent of Agatha Christie. ??????????PERFECT cozy mystery, exceeds expectations. Read all of them now!I'm a giant fan of the golden age mystery genre (and also of Wodehouse) and wasn't expecting a modern writer to be able to pull off the feeling one gets with a Christie, a Sayers, a Marsh, or an Allingham. ??????????Everything You Want in an English Country House MysteryThe plot is more Christie than Wodehouse with multiple mysteries to solve, conflicting motivations, and layers of lies. ??????????Fun and funny...not a dull momentAll the Anty Boisjoly Mysteries are a delight for those of us who still appreciate a good laugh and an over the top twisty/turn-y murder mystery. Great characters, great mysteries, great fun. ??????????Love this series!The author can't write them fast enough. I have to parcel the books out so I don't run out. If you are a fan of classic crime fiction and Blackadder these are for you. ??????????
