When Julia's gran, Dot, wins an all-inclusive spa trip to Scotland, Julia finds it difficult to refuse the offer of a relaxing week away from her cafe. Along with her sister, Sue, they pack up her tiny vintage car and drive all the way from Peridale to Seirbigh Castle, ready to be pampered. The last thing Julia expected was to be caught up in another murder investigation, but when the cruel owner of the family-run spa, Henry McLaughlin, is shot dead, she can't resist ditching the facemasks and massages in favour of cracking the case. Julia quickly befriends the young cook and talented-baker, Blair, and acquires a job in the kitchen so she can observe the strange family in the wake of the murder. Henry's wife and children are acting suspicious, and with an incompetent young Detective Inspector on the case, Julia makes it her mission to discover the secrets held within the ancient walls before Seirbigh Castle claims another victim.

Another great installment. This was interesting in the way that Julia was on her own for this mystery. Dot, Julia's grandmother, won a trip for 3 to a spa in Scotland. Barker stays home with Jessie to run the cafe. Of course, murder has to occur around Julia again, and OF COURSE, she has to help solve the mystery. Julia is a strong, independent woman, but Barker has been, in some way, a part of each of the last stories. In this one, Julia reminds us how strong, independent, and smart she really is. I like seeing her grow in her confidence and relationship with Barker, but this was refreshing as well. I continue to love this series. ( )
