Murder’s never been such a drag.

In vibrant south-east London, a group of grannies stand guard. Baz, Peggy, Carole, and Madge bring new meaning to the phrase ‘femme fatale’: they knit, drink tea, and dole out death to keep their community safe.

When a distraught drag queen rattles their bones with news of a missing friend, the ladies brush off retirement for the obvious path of action: take down the so-called ‘Rainbow Ripper’. With a killer stalking the streets in search of society’s most vulnerable, the body count is on the rise – and so is the women’s thirst for justice.

But with suspects around every corner, Baz and her friends might just be stumped for the first time.

Only one thing is certain: the ladies will do whatever it takes to stop the Rainbow Ripper. Including murder … but only after the tea is finished.

All Tea, No Shade …

A great addition to the series

5 stars

I really like the concept of this series, and this book delivers. The characters are all interesting, but very different, and I feel like I'm starting to get to know the Aunties better, especially Baz.

The idea that drag queens are targeted for violence is all too realistic, and there are some very unpleasant individuals, but the author manages to keep the tone light.

As a fan of both Douglas Adams and Dharma Kelleher, the references to them made me smile :)
