Fried Eggs and Foul Play
(2022)(The sixth book in the Mad Egg Diner Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Constance Barker
Welcome to The Mad Egg Diner Where the Eggs are Over Easy and the Murder is Hard BoiledMelody Bristol’s getting good at murders. Solving them, that is.
Despite pressure from the prim Police Chief, Melody and cowboy cop Gabe continue to deepen their professional and personal connection. After five solved cases and mutual admissions of love, they’re happily considering next steps into a shared future.
Then somebody kills Sly Carrera and it’s back to the salt mines.
Oddly, Sly’s been injected with an overdose of Botox, a unique murder method that baffles the detection duo. The case complicates further when they realize just how many people wanted Sly dead.
As in, everyone.
They examine a peeved partner, a quirky cosmetologist, and a livid landscaper, but they’re just the tip of the suspect iceberg. Good buddy Gideon, for example, lands on the list again because as a diabetic he’s got mad needle skills, and he couldn’t stand the smarmy solicitor.
But Melody can’t shake the feeling that all the town’s murders connect to the mysterious crime ring they’ve yet to understand.
What’s it peddling? Who’s the kingpin?
And why is he killing all these locals?
With her friends, her love, and the town behind her, Melody resolves to root out the rotten core of Cascade, Colorado, come hell, high water, or both.
But she’s unprepared for just how close to home this case will hit.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
