Donuts And Dead

When the handsome grandson of the wealthy Genevieve Van Korbel plans to marry his beautiful new bride in Lincolne Bay, the little fishing town is abuzz with excitement. For Lottie Foxglove, owner of the Sleepy Fox Bakery shop and part-time sleuth, it is a mixed blessing. On the one hand, she's over the moon that Genevieve has hired her to help out with the catering, but on the other, she dreads seeing her grandson Orlando again whom she had a childhood crush on but he never gave her the time of day. Matters are made worse when Orlando's bride, Mercedes turns out to be as stuck-up and as unpleasant as he is and when a nasty bout of food poisoning at the wedding reception leads to the double murder, the finger of blame is pointed squarely at Lottie. Now Lottie has to clear her name and track down the real culprit behind the poisonings. Her investigation brings her up against a bitter and aggressive Orlando, a hostile police detective and a sinister gangster with a very peculiar collection, and she embarks down a dangerous path as a heinous crime from the past is uncovered.
