Murder with a Side of Fries

When Jake opened Pit-Stop Diner off the highway in Oxford, Maine, he expected black coffee, greasy burgers, and the usual cast of quirky locals—not a dead body in his parking lot.

The late-night rush turns into a crime scene when a drifter is found facedown next to the fryer grease barrels. Suddenly, the quiet diner becomes the center of small-town gossip and big trouble. Between suspicious truckers, nosy regulars, and a stranger who seems to know more than they should, Jake’s got more on his plate than the daily special.

As clues pile up like dishes after Sunday breakfast, Jake and his ragtag crew must unravel the mystery before another order comes with a side of murder. With heart, humor, and a hint of danger, this cozy culinary mystery will have you hooked from the first fry to the last bite.
