"Delightful! A fun whodunit full of New England coastal charm and characters who feel like friends. Warm humor, a delectable plot, and clever sleuthing will keep you turning the pages." ―Krista Davis, New York Times bestselling author of the Domestic Diva Mysteries
Winner of the Agatha Award for Best First Novel!
Welcome to the seaside hamlet of Mystic Bay, where the fish is always fresh, the folks are ever-friendly, and murder is on a roll. . .
Allie Larkin was living her dream as a ballet dancer when a bad fall put her out of business. Now she’s back home in Mystic Bay to heal a broken ankle while also helping her dear Aunt Gully get her Lazy Mermaid Lobster Shack off the ground. Nothing would help Gully more than winning the local food festival’s Best Lobster Roll contest. The competition is sure to be killer―especially after one of the contest judges dies after eating a roll from one of Gully’s biggest rivals.
Soon, all eyes fall on Gully as the prime suspect. Allie may only have one good leg to stand on, but she’s not going to let her aunt go down for a crime she never could have cooked up. Can Allie, along with her devoted crew of friends, family, and customers, find a way to trap the killer and claw herself out of this hard-boiled murder case?

Condition: Fair. Allie Larkin has returned to her sleepy hometown of Mystic Bay to heal a broken ankle that has sidelined her from her position as prima ballerina in Boston. Luckily, she's able to land in her Aunt Gully's welcoming arms, and is put to work right away at the Lazy Mermaid Lobster Shack, the family seafood joint right on the bay. Aunt Gully's lobster rolls are some of the best in New England, and she has a chance to prove it at the Lobster Festival hosted by the YUM cooking network. Aunt Gully is excited to compete against some of the most famous seafood chefs in the country, and the celebrity judges have everyone in town abuzz. But when the judges take their first bite of the famous Godlobster roll from Kahuna's, the rival seafood shack in town, they all immediately fall ill, and one dies on the scene. It's clearthat this was no food poisoning, and that foul play is to blame. Allie is determined to get to the bottom of who the real target was, and who could be so diabolical to put four people in grave danger. Seller Inventory # 00109172537
