Candy Holliday loves living in Cape Willington, Maine. She
and her father operate a blueberry farm, and she has a part
time job as a reporter for the local paper. She is
preparing to cover the lobster cook-off when she is asked to
step in for a missing judge. Mr. Sedley has been missing
for a time, and his good friend and fellow contestant has
asked Candy to look into his disappearance.
After the cook-off and the announcement of a surprising
winner, Candy sets out to discover the whereabouts of Mr.
Sedley. What she learns is disturbing. No one has seen the
old man in days and yet there seem to be no clues. To solve
the mystery, Candy will dip into the files of the columnist
that she replaced.
What she learns as she continues investigating will stun
the occupants of Cape Willington. Candy will learn her
prime suspect isn't the villain she thought and some
surprises about the results of the cook-off. There are more
secrets in their small town than one would expect.
Peopled with quirky and amusing characters, Cape Willington
is a nice setting for the cozy mysteries. This is the
second in the series which I've enjoyed. The mysteries
aren't the most complex but the journey the authors lead us
on is enjoyable.
Things start to boil over at the annual Lobster Stew
Cook-Off when an award-winning recipe is stolen and a
seven-time contest champion mysteriously disappears-leaving
Candy no choice but to find out who in Cape Willington,
Maine, would get steamed enough to break the law.
