Manna from Hades (Cornish Series, Book #1) by Carola Dunn
Eleanor Trewynn, recently widowed, returns home from years of working overseas to retire to the cozy village of Port Mabyn in Cornwall, England. However, retired doesn't mean idle, and Eleanor has provided the first floor of her house for a charity shop that she helps run. When she opens the shop one morning, she finds both a particularly valuable donation and a corpse. The donation is linked to a violent robbery in London, but the corpse looks nothing like the robbers being sought by the police. With the help of her niece, Detective Sergeant Megan Pencarrow, and, begrudgingly, Detective Inspector Scumble, Eleanor is determined to unscramble this confounding case of daring theft, double cross, and murder most foul.
