Product Description
The Agatha Award–winning author of Stirring the Plot returns to the Cookbook Nook in Crystal Cove, California, where February brings Pirate Week, National Chocolate Month—and bitter murder…Pirate Week is sweeping through Crystal Cove and keeping Jenna Hart and her bookstore, the Cookbook Nook, plenty busy. But she’s not too swamped to also host the local Chocolate Cookbook Club’s meeting—especially because the guest of honor is her friend, candy maker and cookbook author Coco Chastain.Jenna whips up a delicious event amidst the rowdy festivities, but the mood is soon broken by robberies, simmering tempers, and a dead body—Coco’s editor, Alison. The suspects turn out to be more plentiful than a pot full of gold doubloons, so to prove Coco isn’t responsible for the dastardly deed, Jenna will have to stir up some clues and figure out who’s the real sticky-fingered killer…INCLUDES RECIPES!
Customer Reviews
FUDGING THE BOOKS by Daryl Wood Gerber is a fun rollicking cozy mystery read full of pirates, chocolate and murder. Jenna Hart runs the Cookbook Nook, a cookbook shop in Crystal Cove which is a small coastal town in California. Celebrating Pirate Week in the tourist town is frantic enough but in addition Jenna and her assistant and best friend, Bailey, host the monthly Chocolate Cookbook Club's meeting. Their good friend Coco Chastain, chocolatier and cookbook author, is the guest of honor along with Coco's publisher, Alison Foodie. Before the evening is over Coco and Alison are seen arguing and the next morning Alison is found dead...murdered.Coco is the prime suspect but even though she swears she has an alibi she won't tell anyone who she was with all night long. Jenna starts asking questions around town, wanting to clear her friend's name. Before long she has several people who may have had motives for killing the publisher and each of them appear to be lying in one way or another.The author's characters come to life on the pages and I would love to spend time in her Crystal Cove and especially the Cookbook Nook! FUDGING THE BOOKS is the fourth book in the Cookbook Nook series but is easily read as a stand-alone. I loved this book along with all the delicious sounding recipes Daryl included, and will certainly be reading all the books in this series!
