About This Book

Sarah Fox continues her USA Today bestselling series with a delicious new cozy mystery set around the Flip Side pancake house in the quirky beach town of Wildwood Cove—a treat for fans of culinary cozies by Joanne Fluke. 

Murder is on the menu in the latest Pancake House Mystery, as a treasure trove of old letters spurs a killer to take some unsavory action. . . .

 
This summer, Wildwood Cove is hosting a special event, Wild West Days, to celebrate the town's storied past. Wildwood Cove's museum is also getting a new lease of life thanks to a longtime resident's generous bequest. Several locals, including Marley McKinney-Collins, owner of the Flip Side pancake house, offer to transfer artifacts to the beautiful restored Victorian that will become the museum's home. But there's an unappetizing development when a volunteer, Jane Fassbinder, is found dead—bludgeoned with an antique clothes iron.
 
Marley can never resist a piping hot mystery, and this one seems especially intriguing. Jane had recently unearthed some love letters from the Jack of Diamonds, a notorious thief who plagued Wildwood Cove over a century ago. As more locals meet with dangerous "accidents," it seems that someone is determined to keep that correspondence buried deep in the past. And unless Marley can sift through the likely suspects, she too could end up being nothing but history. . . .

Includes pancake recipes right from the Flip Side menu!
 
Praise for Sarah Fox's Wine and Punishment
 
"Readers will cheer this brisk, literate addition to the world of small-town cozies."
Kirkus Reviews
 
"Hits all the right notes—a unique setting, friends and family, an intriguing mystery, and even the promise of romance."
—Sofie Ryan, New York Times bestselling author of the Second Chance Cat mysteries.

"Draws readers into the fold of suspects in Shady Creek and doesn't let go until the culprit is uncovered. There are laugh-out-loud moments, hold-your-breath moments, and moments when you'll think you have the mystery figured out, but the surprises keep coming!"

USA Today bestselling author Amy M. Reade
