Synopsis

The island village of Eastport, Maine, is full of delights—including the delicious treats sold at The Chocolate Moose, the waterfront bakery run by Jacobia “Jake” Tiptree and Ellie White. But a new bakery in town is proving that you can have too much of a good thing... Summer in Eastport means lobsters and blueberries, though tourists and locals alike always leave a little room for baked goods from The Chocolate Moose. This year’s arts festival, featuring food, games, and rollicking local musicians, means even more sweet-toothed customers. But it’s also bringing competition from a new rival, Choco’s, that’s trying to slice into the action. Choco’s owner, Brad Fairway, is pulling sneaky stunts to divert Moose patrons to his own shop, and Ellie finally confronts him about his tactics. But when Brad is found dead next day—and the weapon is a gun that belongs to Ellie—it’s only a matter of time before she is charged with the crime. Sifting through the victim’s connections, Jake and Ellie sense they’re getting close to the real culprit—a little too close. Can they serve up the solution before the killer dishes up another helping of murder?

This one was all right. It definitely had potential to be a good mystery and it wasn't terrible. It just wasn't my favorite in the series. Pretty slow moving and I forgot some stuff while reading it.

I did not realize this was 6th in a series but after starting saw I had read the first book in this series awhile back. I loved the cover which initially attracted me to this book.

Jacobia, 'Jake', Tiptree, has a dream of a job which she gets to share with her best friend, Ellie White as they run a bakery together. The Chocolate Moose, with its small seating area, is perfectly situated on the waterfront of their hometown of Eastport, Maine. Jake also has a checkered past but s......more

I really enjoyed this cozy mystery set in a small coastal town in Maine. In the story, the MCs stumble across a dead body and have to prove that one of them wasn't the murderer. I loved the audiobook and hearing the Maine accents for some of the characters was great fun. This was my first book from......more
