First in a delicious new mystery series
filled with casseroles, confidences, and killers...
Lilah Drake’s Covered Dish business discreetly provides the
residents of Pine Haven, Illinois, with delicious,
fresh-cooked meals they can
claim they cooked themselves. But when one of her
clandestine concoctions is used to poison a local woman,
Lilah
finds herself in a pot-load
of trouble…
After dreaming for years of owning her own catering
company, Lilah has made a start into the food world through
her Covered Dish business,
covertly cooking for her neighbors who don’t have the time
or skill to do so themselves, and allowing them to
claim her culinary creations
as their own. While her clientele is strong, their
continued happiness depends on no one finding out who’s
really
behind the apron.
So when someone drops dead at a church Bingo night moments
after eating chili that Lilah made for a client, the
anonymous chef finds herself
getting stirred into a cauldron of secrets, lies, and
murder—and going toe to toe with a very determined and very
attractive detective. To
keep her clients coming back and her business under wraps,
Lilah will have to chop down the list of suspects
fast, because this spicy killer
has acquired a taste for homicide…
In the latest from the bestselling author of
Plagued by Quilt, Kath Rutledge yarn bombs Blue Plum,
Tennessee—and gets tangled
up in the mystery of a bumped-off bagpiper.
It’s time for Handmade Blue Plum, an annual arts and crafts
fair, and Kath and her knitting group TGIF (Thank
Goodness It’s Fiber) plan to
kick off the festivities with a yarn bombing. But they’re
not the only ones needling Blue Plum. Bagpiper and
former resident Hugh McPhee had
just returned after a long absence, yet his reception is
anything but cozy. The morning after his arrival, he’s
found dead in full piper’s
regalia.
Although shaken, Kath and her knitting group go forward
with their yarn installation—only to hit a deadly snag.
Now, with the help of
Geneva, the ghost who haunts her shop, Kath and TGIF need
to unravel the mystery before someone else gets kilt!
This Cinderella goes from ashes to ashes in
the new Victorian-era Fairy Tale Fatal Mystery by the
author of Snow White Red-
Handed . . .
Variety hall actress Ophelia Flax’s plan to reunite her
friend Prue with her estranged—and allegedly wealthy—
mother, Henrietta, is met with
a grim surprise. Not only is the marquise’s Paris mansion a
mouse-infested ruin, but Henrietta has inexplicably
vanished, leaving behind an
evasive husband, two sinister stepsisters, and a bullet-
riddled corpse in the pumpkin patch decked out in a ball
gown and one glass slipper—
a corpse that also happens to be a dead ringer for Prue.
Strangely, no one at 15 rue Garenne seems concerned about
who plugged this luckless Cinderella or why, so the
investigation is left to
Ophelia and Prue. It takes them through the labyrinthine
maze of the Paris Opera, down the trail of a legendary
fairy tale relic, into the
confidence of a wily prince charmless, and makes them
vulnerable to the secrets of a mysterious couturière with
designs of her own on Prue’s
ever-twisting family history.
