Amara and Nea head off to the Gulf Coast Seafood Festival in Mangrove Bay, a nearby town, to cheer Bo and Cora Dawson on during a cooking competition. However, what starts out as a fun day of good food, friends, and some much-needed R & R quickly turns into a hunt for a possible killer when our girls learn the former mayor of the town is dead just hours after judging one of the cook-offs. Could the culprit be a simple case of heart failure? Mayor Tracy Hartfield of Gulf Breeze isn’t buying it, so he hires the two ladies to do some detective work for him. They head back to the festival and start asking questions, but when they get threatened by a very large thug in a mask to stop snooping, Nea knows there must be more to the story and as usual she is bound and determined to find the truth. Throw in a quirky widow, a dangerous bookie, and a blonde bartender named Venus, and this outing is shaping up to be their craziest case yet! Did we mention the mysterious guest at the bungalows and the hidden fallout shelter? Guess you’ll have to read this nonstop adventure to find out the rest…
