(2017)(The third book in the Callie's Kitchen Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Jenny Kales
If you can't stand the heat, get out of Callie's Kitchen! Greek-American restaurateur Callie Costas faces down another killer in picturesque Crystal Bay, Wisconsin. Recipes included!
Summertime in Crystal Bay means tourist season for Calliope "Callie" Costas, owner of Callie's Kitchen, a Greek-meets-Midwest from-scratch eatery. Business is booming but so is the stress. Callie can barely keep up with the demand for her famous summer fruit pies and savory Greek delicacies, plus she's agreed to bake dozens of "pitas" for the annual Greek Fest.
When Callie is asked to deliver cast party treats for a Murder Mystery Night at the historic Harris House, it seems like a welcome break from her hot stove. That is, until she finds herself an unwilling player in yet another suspicious death. Worse yet, the victim is a family friend and graduate student working on a project involving Crystal Bay's colorful past.
Before long, a motley crew of suspects makes things as juicy as the succulent berries strewn around Callie's Kitchen. And that's not all Callie's got on her plate. Add family obligations, a deepening romance with a local detective and unexpected personnel problems to the mix.
One thing's for sure: Callie's got the recipe for a long, hot summer!
Turn to the back of the book for delicious Greek and traditional Midwestern recipes!
Genre: Cozy Mystery
