When two sharp-tongued sisters get called for jury duty, small-town justice doesn’t stand a chance. Eighty-seven year old Betty and her level-headed sister Barb expected a quiet week at the courthouse — some sandwiches, a little gossip, maybe a nap or two between testimonies. What they didn’t expect was murder. When a defendant drops dead mid-trial and the evidence starts pointing closer to home, Betty and Barb find themselves tangled in a web of deceit that stretches from the courthouse steps to the heart of Bayview itself. Between secret affairs, missing files, and one suspiciously ...

Welcome to Starke, Florida—a town sweet on sugar and sour on secrets. Clara Bloom thought life as a small-town coffee shop owner would be simple: pour lattes, bake coffee cake, and gossip with her best friend Daisy.

What starts as a search for a saboteur spirals into a web of lies, embezzlement, and dangerous secrets stretching far beyond the kitchen. From pearl-clutching socialites to clipboard-wielding inspectors, everyone...

An excerpt: As someone who regularly dumps all food groups into the same bowl usually containing a goulash of store-bought breaded chicken nuggets, microwavable sweet peas, alfredo sauce from aisle eleven, Dollar General cream cheese, butter and fried onions, I am probably the last person you want to ask about fine dining. At least by all good society’s standards (It’s kinda good, actually.) It’s no secret that I’m a middle-aged, divorced, obese pale woman hanging on to her mental faculties by their last strand with still no idea what I want to do with my life aside from traveling ...
