Past the Boiling Point

Business is bubbling over for Becky and Lisa McAllister, the lobster-loving sisters behind Let’s Lobstah!—until the annual Cliff’s Cove Chowder Cook-Off turns up more than prize-winning recipes. When a rival chef collapses mid-competition, suspicion lands squarely on the McAllisters after someone swaps their secret ingredient for poison. With their reputation on the line and their food truck shut down by the health inspector, Becky and Lisa must sift through a stew of jealous chefs, sabotaged soup pots, and one very shady sponsor.

As the sisters stir up clues—from the docks to the diners of Cliff’s Cove—they realize the competition wasn’t just about chowder; it was about revenge. Warm, witty, and served with a side of suspense, Past the Boiling Point proves that in Maine’s favorite beach town, even comfort food can get deadly.
