Synopsis

Meg Quilliam would rather eat a rat than judge a deep-fat frying contest. But when celebrity chef Banion O’Haggerty offers to do it—for a pretty penny—and decides to stay at Quill and Meg’s inn, it’s the start of even more turmoil. Before the new franchise even opens, Mr. Holcomb has competition: Captain Cluck is setting up shop here too. Then, a butcher knife is missing and so is Banion! It’s anyone’s guess who will ruffle this killer’s feathers next …

A country inn with a quirky cast of characters has lots of potential, but this story was slow and I had a hard time staying with it. The abrupt ending is completely improbable......more

Goodreads review by Kate

Wasn't a very balanced story. When a mystery doesn't have a murder until a third of the way into the book, it does what Fried by Jury did and struggled with pacing.

Goodreads review by Stephanie

Good book. Never a dull moment. Interesting to see how "dangerous" fast food can be without even eating it. This series definitely makes me want to visit the inn. Would be a fun vacation itself. Can't wait to read more.......more
