Resumen del Editor

This set of three novels contains Books Eight through 10 in the Lexy Baker Culinary Cozy Mystery series featuring bakery owner Lexy Baker and her posse of iPad-toting senior citizen amateur sleuths.

Books included are:

Scones, Skulls, & Scams

Brook Ridge Falls' favorite bakery owner Lexy Baker has everything she ever wanted. A new husband she adores. A thriving bakery business. Everything is going great.

Until a new bakery springs up across the street and tries every trick in the book to put her out of business!

Lexy smells something rotten about the bakery, and it isn’t just their stale brownies. When her own bakery is broken into, she knows who did it...but what she can’t figure out is why.

Could the new baker be after her great-grandmother's prize-winning scone recipe, or is there another more sinister reason?

Meanwhile....

A grizzly discovery in the sewer system sends her and her gang of iPad-toting grandmas off to solve a decades-old crime under the streets of Brook Ridge Falls.

Could a 70-year-old crime be related to the new bakery?

Ice Cream Murder

When millionaire Regis Banks drops dead at his own party, everyone assumes it was from natural causes - after all, the man was celebrating his 100th birthday...

Everyone except Lexy Baker’s amateur sleuth grandmother Nans and her three friends, that is. When it turns out that Regis’ death might have been caused by more than just old age, Nans refuses to let the trail grow cold - especially after a local reporter trying to get a scoop threatens to write an article blaming the death on Lexy.

It doesn’t take long before Nans and Lexy are up to their eyeballs in suspects. And when those suspects start dropping like flies, Lexy and Nans have to step up their game before the killer claims their next victim.

Mummified Meringues

Murder hits a little too close to home for bakery owner Lexy Baker when a grim discovery is made in her homicide detective husband Jack's basement.

With Jack as the main suspect, Lexy has to turn up the heat and find the real killer while still trying to whip up the perfect meringue cookie recipe for the Brook Ridge Falls Desserts Contest. Normally, she would enlist the aid of her amateur detective grandmother, Nans. Except...

Nans has a secret and is uncustomarily uninterested in investigating. Not to be daunted, Lexy turns to her iPad-toting posse of grandma sleuths, who help her sift through the clues in an investigation that keeps dishing up the most unlikely suspects.

When a surprising twist causes Lexy to suspect those closest to her, it makes her wonder if some things from the past aren't better left alone.

fun easy to read book

Easy read. fun to listen to while driving or working. Cute story line. Chick flick kind of book with mystery thrown in

Poor editing/author research makes stories disappointing

Clearly, this author/editor have never heard of a statute of limitations. One does not get prosecuted for 50 year old crimes. Furthermore, the FBI does not have detectives. They have agents and they have nothing to do with the witness protection program. The lack of good research makes these books disappointing.
