Old-fashioned malts, delicious waffle cones, and… poison.
Among the new businesses on Elkhorn Avenue, Doc’s Apothecary and Soda Shoppe adds a touch of yesteryear charm to the cozy Colorado mountain town of Estes Park. And while the delicious malts might be tempting, the owner is a childhood friend who elicits ambivalent emotions in Fred. To Watson, however, Donna Day is as good as any fancy treat… maybe even better!
The grand opening of Doc’s is an event that draws a mixed crowd—almost as eclectic as the ice cream flavors—that includes Fred’s closest friends and family along with others who… well, might not have Fred’s best interests at heart. A poisoning in the middle of the celebrations, and in the midst of an angry conversation, dampens the mood. Fred might want nothing more than several dirty chais, Katie’s pastries, and to curl up in the mystery room of the Cozy Corgi Bookstore and Bakery, but murder just can’t be ignored.
Following this trail leads Fred and Watson down a twisting ominous path into the past, where old secrets and dangerous connections bring consequences… for friends and enemies.
(This culinary cozy mystery includes a recipe for poison-free butter pecan ice cream.)
Genre: Cozy Mystery
