Resumen del Editor

Jake and Ellie have been through a lot together, from home repair to homicide investigation. So when they decide to open a chocolate-themed bakery, they figure it'll be a piece of cake.

With Ellie's old family recipes luring in customers, they expect to make plenty of dough this Fourth of July weekend. Having family home for the holiday only sweetens the deal for Jake - that is, until the ill wind of an early-season hurricane blows up her family's plans.

But as bitter as the storm is, something even more sinister is brewing in the kitchen of The Chocolate Moose - where health inspector Matt Muldoon is found murdered. Ellie never made a secret of her distaste for Matt, who'd been raining on their parade with bogus talk of health-code violations. But now, with no alibi for the night of the murder, she's in a sticky situation with the police - so it's up to Jake to catch the real killer and keep Ellie living in the land of the free.

Had a smile when I finished it. 🙃

Fabulous continuation with Sarah’s usual great storytelling. We get to hear more on the characters in her family. Easy to follow and narrator is very good. It was good to continue with Jake and Ellie’s adventures.

Murder in the midst of dilemma---4/5

This story is set in: north western U.S.A. in a vacation town. The Characters are believable, for the most part. Some are a bit in left field (walking into danger without thinking).

Eastport, a small town over populated with tourist and the bakery take center stage. The two owners of the bakery are in the middle of a dilemma, when they find a murdered man in their bakery-- the murder investigation begins. At the same time, a major storm leaves the small town's sheriff busy, providing emergency shelter for those that couldn't get away from the storm. But the investigation must continue, or it looks like an innocent will be charged with murder.

I listened to it twice--just to make sure I caught all the action-- (there were many sub stories playing out along side the murder and the storm).

You will be pleased with the drama and the twists an turns make for fun. Good read/ listen that is well worth the credit.

Susan Boyce was an excellent Narrator

I will be purchasing book 2.

good series!

This was a good read. like the narrator but I miss Lindsay Ellison. the plot was good and well written. I miss the other two dogs Monday and the other one. also Cat Dancer the cat. I was hoping Sam would have married Maggie. but all in all it was a good book.

Great new series

Sarah Graves has crafted a great beginning to a new series. Characters are well developed, and seem like friends. This installment really left me wanting more. Susan Boyce brought it all together with her nice performance. I recommend this to cozy mystery fans.

new adventures

what happened to prill and monday, their old dogs, they act like they nevrr had any. I wss beginning to wonder about Lee too, until she showed up at camp, and poor George. not quite as good as the home repair series to me.

Love Jake & Ellie

I'm glad Sarah Graves has brought Jake & Ellie back. The bakery is a nice change. Jake seems to have lost her backbone. She used to be a self-assured woman - the kind that would state, "I can take care of myself" Ellie's crazy outfits gone. George & her daughter don't appear until the final scene. I guess my main issue with this book was the narrator. She couldn't perform the Northeastern accent. Most of the characters were born & raised in Maine. They don't sound like Everybody sounds the same - no accent. Really hoping that the publisher brings back Lindsay Ellison. If not, send Ms. Boyce to a voice coach to learn the appropriate accent.

Missed the previous narrator

I’ve already listened to the previous series featuring Jake and Ellie. Lindsay Ellison’s narration of those books was superb! Susan Boyce is somewhat staccato in comparison. But the story was Sarah Graves’s stellar work!

always a great read by Sarah graves. love the new

Always a great read by Sarzh Graves. Love the new story line. However, it does make me want to go to the bakery!

Good to the last bite!

Just like the best recipes, the plot offered a few secret ingredients. Jake and Ellie pursue a mystery which turns out to be as dark and thrilling as their chocolatey desserts.

So so

A cozy mystery. I liked the people and the location. I got much of the issues pretty early. The late info is a bit of a cheat on the author’s side
