Produktbeschreibung

From the bestselling author of the Home Repair is Homicide novels comes the latest in this "sharp, smart, and witty" (Crimespree) series set in a charming, real-life Maine fishing village, where chocolate-themed recipes, appealing characters, and an unpredictable mystery make the perfect mix for fans of Joanne Fluke, Leslie Meier, and Diane Mott Davidson. Jake and Ellie are taking a break from perfecting their chocolate pizza recipe to cater a housewarming party hosted by movie icon Ingrid Merryfield. Miss Merryfield is famous for her old-Hollywood glamour. Her new home, Cliff House, has a reputation too-for being haunted. Some of her guests even try to summon a spirit during the party, using a Ouija board. What arrives instead is a freak autumn storm that downs an ancient tree, trapping everyone on the property and setting the stage for a killer's planned spree . . . Though Jake and Ellie don't intend to get stirred into the mix, there's no avoiding it-especially when they witness a guest being shoved over the very precipice that gave Cliff House its forbidding name. As they sift through suspects and motives, their search takes them from a long-lost family graveyard to an herbalist's deceptively sweet cottage and finally to Cliff House's overgrown gardens. Is there some ghostly presence involved-or a flesh-and-blood villain? Either way, can they avoid meeting their very own, very permanent Hollywood ending? Praise for the Death by Chocolate Mysteries "A treat for aficionados of shopkeeper-sleuth cozies." -Kirkus Reviews "Entertaining. . . . Cozy fans are sure to have fun." -Publishers Weekly Includes a Recipe!

Autorenporträt

Sarah Graves lives in Eastport, Maine, in a 200-year-old house much like Jake Tiptree's. After 20 years of home repair-and yes, it really does make you think about murder!-she has handed in her toolbox and returned to her first love: chocolate. When she's not cooking or baking something delectable, or writing about it, she tends a huge garden or shovels snow, depending upon the season.
