Annie Capshaw is a bank teller by day at Pioneer Savings
and Loan. At night she manages Bellywashers, a bar and
restaurant. Annie likes to snoop around and investigate
crimes. You could call her a private detective, but she
doesn't mean to investigate murders, she just happens upon
them.
Annie's boyfriend is Jim MacDonald, owner of Bellywashers.
Jim decides to teach a bar-food cooking class out of his
bar/restaurant. Annie is a horrible cook but reluctantly
helps out with the classes. On the first night of classes,
Annie's best friend Eve recognizes one of the students as
her ex boyfriend Brad. Brad ruined Annie's life and she is
furious when she sees him.
Eve is part of an organization called Women Opposed to
Weasels. The group of women have all been wronged by men,
a number of them all have been screwed over by Brad. Eve
has been stalking Brad since seeing him at the cooking
class. She wants to find evidence to prove that he really
is a horrible person and warn other women about him.
Annie goes out for drinks with several people from the
cooking class. The next day, one of the students is found
dead. Eve's ex boyfriend Tyler is a cop and is
investigating Eve for the murder of the dead student.
When Annie finds out that Eve is in trouble, she has no
choice but to put on her private investigator hat and
clear her best friend's name. Who would want to kill one
of the cooking class students?
DEAD MEN DON'T GET THE MUNCHIES is a fun cozy type mystery
that is enjoyable from start to finish. This was my first
book by Miranda Bliss and I look forward to reading the
other books in this mystery series.
The story moves along at a fast pace and is exciting,
suspenseful and funny. Cozy mystery readers will have a
great time reading DEAD MEN DON'T GET THE MUNCHIES and I
highly recommend it for a fun read!
Cooking class is back in session for best friends-and
sometime sleuths-Annie and Eve. But this time, Annie finds
herself on the teacher's side of the cutting board, helping
out during a bar food cooking class at D.C.'s latest
hotspot, Bellywasher's. And her best friend, Eve, is in more
hot water than ever-as the prime suspect in a student's murder.
