Crombie's characters are rich, emotionally textured, fully human. They are the remarkable creations of a remarkable writer.--Louise Penny

"Nobody writes the modern English mystery the way Deborah Crombie does--and A Bitter Feast is the latest in a series that is gripping, enthralling, and just plain the best." -- Charles Todd, New York Times bestselling author of The Black Ascot and A Cruel Deception

New York Times bestselling author Deborah Crombie returns with a mesmerizing entry in her "excellent" (Miami Herald) series, in which Scotland Yard detectives Duncan Kincaid and Gemma James are pulled into a dangerous web of secrets, lies, and murder that simmers beneath the surface of a tranquil Cotswolds village.

Scotland Yard Detective Superintendent Duncan Kincaid and his wife, Detective Inspector Gemma James, have been invited for a relaxing weekend in the Cotswolds, one of Britain's most enchanting regions, famous for its rolling hills, golden cottages, and picturesque villages.

Duncan, Gemma, and their children are guests at Beck House, the family estate of Melody Talbot, Gemma's detective sergeant. The Talbot family is wealthy, prominent, and powerful--Melody's father is the publisher of one of London's largest and most influential newspapers. The centerpiece of this glorious fall getaway is a posh charity harvest luncheon catered by up-and-coming chef Viv Holland. After fifteen years in London's cut-throat food scene, Viv has returned to the Gloucestershire valleys of her childhood and quickly made a name for herself with her innovative meals based on traditional cuisine but using fresh local ingredients. Attended by the local well-to-do as well as national press food bloggers and restaurant critics, the event could make Viv a star.

But a tragic car accident and a series of mysterious deaths rock the estate and pull Duncan and Gemma into the investigation. It soon becomes clear that the killer has a connection with Viv's pub--or, perhaps, with Beck House itself.

Does the truth lie in the past? Or is it closer to home, tied up in the tangled relationships and bitter resentments between the staff at Beck House and Viv's new pub? Or is it more personal, entwined with secrets hidden by Viv and those closest to her?

Good Disposable Pans for Entertaining
Size: 9*13 Aluminum Pans
I recently purchased a 30-pack of 9×13 aluminum pans for a few gatherings and heavy cooking sessions, and they’ve turned out to be quite useful. I used them for baking lasagna, roasting vegetables, and even transporting casseroles to potlucks. Because they’re disposable, cleanup has been a breeze. After a meal, I didn’t have to worry about scrubbing or losing my regular baking dish. The pans stack neatly, so storage before use doesn’t take much space, and carrying multiple pans at once is manageable when boxed. That said, there are a couple of things to keep in mind. The edges are a little flimsy — if you grab a fully loaded one carelessly, it can bend; that is kinda expected though. Also, for very sticky or sugary crusts, I found a liner beneath helpful to avoid stuck bits. Overall, these aluminum pans work well for large meals, catered dishes, or occasions when you don’t want to worry about returning dishware. They’re practical, convenient, and strong enough for most everyday cooking needs.

Does the job well
Material Type: Recycled Fiber
Bought others and keep coming back they aren’t Scott. I like that it’s thick but not too thick. It’s not too soft but it does the job well. Other rolls also say they have the same amount of squint they don’t go as far. Worth the money

Good price and good quality
Material Type: Recycled Fiber, Material Type: Recycled Fiber
I have been subscribing to this Scott Professional toilet paper for over ten years, and it has never disappointed. The 100% recycled fiber rolls are durable and absorbent, and the 2-ply construction offers the comfort and quality we expect from a premium toilet paper. The bulk packaging and subscription model are extremely convenient, delivering every four months—exactly when we need to restock—so we never run out. Over the years, I’ve found this toilet paper to be consistently reliable, making it perfect for long-term use in our household. The product provides excellent value for money, especially considering the combination of quality, eco-friendliness, and bulk quantity. I also appreciate the punctual delivery and ease of subscription management, which eliminates any worry about running low. Whether for home or office use, I highly recommend Scott Professional 2-ply toilet paper for anyone looking for a practical, high-quality, and eco-conscious option that keeps bathrooms well-stocked without hassle.

Better than regular scotts brand
Material Type: Recycled Fiber
It is 2 ply it's not super soft but it's not paper hard either. It's a blend of both. It is absorbent. Septic safe. Does not stick to ur bottom. Lasts much longer. Not so thick but thicker and softer than regular scotts brand.
