Curry & Chips: A Huddlestone Cozy Mystery

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice. The scent of curry spices and freshly baked scones should signal comfort, but in Huddlestone, nothing is that simple anymore. Whispers of murder and hidden scandals linger in the Yorkshire air, as thick as the fog rolling in from the moors. Meet Aisha Khan and her Spice Squad, the lunchtime legends of Huddlestone School. Razia, with her sharp tongue and endless supply of local gossip; Zara, tech-savvy and always two steps ahead; and Priya, the gentle observer whose quiet insights hold the key to untangling mysteries. But these ladies aren't just experts in shepherd's pie and perfectly brewed tea. They've become the unlikely detectives of their sleepy mill town, and their latest case hits close to home. Betty, their beloved fellow dinner lady, always quick with a smile and a Werther's Original, is found dead. The police call it a mere accident, but the ladies know better. Betty harbored secrets, whispers of a hidden past and a connection to the town's untouchable elite, the Featheringtons. As the Spice Squad digs deeper, using their power walks, kitchen camaraderie, and surprising connections, they find themselves in a battle far spicier than anything on the school lunch menu. From the shadowy corners of the old mill to the grand halls of Featherington Manor, they follow a trail of missing lottery tickets, scandalous affairs, and long-buried resentments. They navigate a tangled web of feuding families, forgotten secrets, and simmering tensions that threaten to tear Huddlestone apart at the seams. But don't underestimate the ladies who lunch. Fueled by friendship, a fierce sense of justice, and a side of piping hot samosas, these ladies are about to bring their unique brand of spice to a town that's sadly lacking in flavor. Because if there's one thing the Spice Squad knows, it's that even in the coziest corners of England, a little murder can leave the worst aftertaste.
