Clam Chowder Cover-Up (A Maine Diner Mystery Book 8)
By Kelli Fudge
Nothing says “Welcome to Seaview” like chowder, charm… and a side of scandal.
When the annual Clam Chowder Festival ends with celebrity food critic Dexter Vale face-down in his bowl, suspicion boils over fast—and lands squarely on Gus Bailey, the beloved cook at The Lighthouse Diner. With the health inspector shutting them down and the town in chaos, retired librarian Hazel Parker grabs her notebook (and her courage) to prove her friend’s innocence.
As gossip simmers and secrets rise to the surface, Hazel discovers that Seaview’s culinary world is seasoned with greed, rivalry, and one too many lies. From fog-shrouded docks to yacht-side confessions, Hazel and Millie stir up the truth before the real killer serves a second helping.
Because in Seaview, Maine, murder always starts with a recipe and ends with a toast.
