LDS* fiction, foodie, cozy mystery, first in a series...
I received a book/gift catalog in the mail that had an interesting cozy mystery, Blackberry Crumble. Oh, that sounds delicious. ;) The description sounded okay but it wasn't the first in the series so off the amazon I went.
Lemon Tart it is.
The police cars show up in chapter one and the body is discovered in chapter two.
Already I know that if Sadie wasn't so nice, everyone would hate her. She lives on the corner of a cul-de-sac with a large window over her kitchen sink overlooking the street. "She liked to watch the comings and goings of the neighborhood." She has a key to everyone's home, except Mr. Henry. Now she is retired and widowed, imagine the time she has to "watch the neighborhood". See? could be creepy is she wasn't so nice. Sadie is mentoring the late single mother and is wondering where Trevor is. He's two.
A Recipe for Murder
5 families living on Peregrine Circle
1 flowered curtain tieback
1 missing child
1 body in the field
Mix with a long list of suspects and top with two very different detectives. Increase heat until only the truth remains.
Oh, the recipe for Mom's Lemon Tart is at the end of chapter one. Off to read. . .
