Recipe For Revenge: An Unputdownable Small Town Cozy Murder Mystery (An April May Cozy Mystery Book 2)
By Hazel Smith
A burglary, a new romance, and a missing person: there’s never a dull moment for April May, Laurel Lake’s newest town reporter.
Especially when a local store burns to the ground and the cantankerous owner is presumed dead.
Theories run wild from the coffee shop to the craft club, where April still can’t crochet to save her life.
Until strange sightings and a threatening note plunge this big-city girl turned small-town sleuth into a thickening plot of intrigue.
It would be easier to sniff out the clues with the help of her foster dog Ralph, only a suspicious stranger suddenly turned up to claim him.
With the comfort and help of her new friends and the handsome vet in town, April discovers curious connections between Ralph’s owner, recent events, and her mysterious past.
When a close call puts her sweetheart in the hospital, April has to race against time to find out who has cooked up this recipe for revenge.
Unless she finds the culprit quickly, April may not end up in the hospital but in the morgue.
