A Recipe for Murder

A Coastal Baking Cozy Mystery

De: Sally Winters

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Baker Nelly Hartley is burning the midnight oil, preparing three hundred lavender shortbread cookies for the biggest catering job of her career. But when she steps into the alley behind The Rolling Pin to empty the compost bin, she stumbles over a dead body—and a trail of flour-dusted footprints leading straight from her kitchen. The victim is Victor Ashford, a celebrity cookbook author with a charming smile and a dark secret. Twelve years ago, he tried to steal Nelly's grandmother's prized scone recipe. Now he's dead in her alley, and someone has gone to great lengths to make sure the evidence points in all the wrong directions.

With her loyal English Bulldog Bruno at her side and her best friend Trudy armed with a notebook full of theories, Nelly digs into Victor's past and uncovers a trail of stolen recipes, ruined careers, and bitter grudges. The victim's estranged wife stands to inherit millions. A former pastry chef blames Victor for destroying his dreams. And Victor's own editor seems to be hiding secrets that could unravel everything. As the clues pile up and the suspects multiply, Nelly realizes that someone has orchestrated the perfect murder—and she may be the only one who can see through the deception.

Return to the charming coastal town of Rolling Wave Cove for another delightful mystery filled with warm friendships, fresh-baked treats, and just the right amount of danger.
