In the new Cheese Shop Mystery from the Agatha Award- winning author of AS GOUDA AS DEAD, an extra-sharp tongued cheese critic is cut down during a summer cheese festival.
Itβs time for the annual Cheese Festival in Providence, Ohio, and Charlotte Bessetteβs cheese shop is packed with homemade specialties. Meanwhile, her friend Erin is prepping her dairy farm and inn for cheese makers, marketers, journalists, and one surprise guestβLara Berry, pretentious cheese whiz, pompous bestselling author, and pungent critic whose extra sharp tongue can crumble a reputation.
Even though any love for Lara by her friends curdled long ago, Charlotte is surprised when the foodie is smothered to death in her room at Erinβs inn. Accusations start flying, but the one laying blame on Erin strikes Charlotte as a crock. Now, to clear her friendβs name, Charlotte has to sift through Laraβs ex-lovers, former business partners, and unforgiving enemies to find a killer before Laraβs past casts a tainted pall on the festivalβs future.
