A Toast to Die For…
Claire Winters, owner of The Cozy Nook, is ready to enjoy the town's Peach Festival—until the celebrity guest collapses at the welcome brunch, poisoned by sparkling peach tea raised in a toast.
With her tabby Max keeping her grounded and journalist friend Sophie chasing every whisper, Claire finds herself doing what café owners aren’t supposed to do: hunting a killer.
The victim’s exhausted assistant knew her drink preference and placed the fatal glass himself. Her own relative invited her to the festival, and carried a complicated grudge. Both had motive. Both had access. And they are only the beginning.
Then a second poisoning nearly claims another life, disguised as an act of kindness no one thinks to question. As Deputy Sheriff Mark Benton and Claire close in, they realize the killer is still smiling—and closer than anyone wants to believe.
It's not all peaches in this small town. Someone sweet enough to trust is bitter enough to kill, and Claire is running out of time before the festival claims another victim.
Book Review
Another good cozy featuring a great cast of characters and red herrings to keep you guessing. A murder at a peach festival is what starts it all. Add in an attempted murder, a cat, and human sleuths and you get a juicy read you can sink your reading teeth into.
Sit back and enjoy!.
