Description
When café owner Claire Brennan volunteers to coordinate Pinewood Falls' 50th Annual Community Thanksgiving Dinner, she expects kitchen chaos, volunteer drama, and maybe a few burnt rolls. What she doesn't expect is to find Gordon Finch, the town's insufferable food critic, dead in a vat of gravy the morning of the big event. With half the town having a reason to want Gordon gone and the local sheriff overwhelmed with suspects, Claire finds herself reluctantly investigating a murder instead of serving turkey.
Armed with her best friend Patty the librarian, retired mailman Hank and his encyclopedic memory of town gossip, and her lazy orange tabby Butterscotch, Claire begins asking questions. Gordon had been digging into old secrets, threatening livelihoods, and making enemies faster than Claire makes pancakes. From competing diner owners to pressured farmers, volunteer coordinators to building managers, everyone had a motive and nearly everyone had opportunity. As Claire juggles prep work for the rescheduled dinner and dodges threatening texts warning her to back off, she realizes the key to solving Gordon's murder lies in understanding what he discovered that was dangerous enough to kill for.
In this delightful cozy mystery full of small-town charm, quirky characters, and plenty of Thanksgiving treats, Claire must sort through gravy-covered clues and sort truth from lies before the killer strikes again. Perfect for fans of classic whodunits who love their mysteries served with a side of humor, heart, and homemade pie.
