***Includes RECIPE

My name is Bizzy Baker, and I can read minds—not every mind, not every time but most of the time and believe me when I say it’s not all it’s cracked up to be.

Cider Cove, Maine, is sweltering in the heat of a long, hot, summer as the inn plays host to a local TV show, Cider Cove Home and Heart. While a trio of domestic divas do their best to regale their viewers with a clam bake, someone in the crowd is about to regale them with murder. A cute golden retriever puppy is soon left without its owner and I not only has a new home to find for the sweet pup, I have a killer to catch.

Emmie has a secret that will be brought to light, and Macy’s dirty thirty birthday bash is at hand.

Things are heating up in Cider Cove this summer—and with a homicide front and center, the clam bake isn’t the only thing about to boil over.

Bizzy Baker runs the Country Cottage Inn, has the ability to pry into the darkest recesses of both the human and animal mind, and has just stumbled upon a body. With the help of her kitten, Fish, a mutt named Sherlock Bones and an ornery yet dangerously good looking homicide detective, Bizzy is determined to find the killer.

The Country Cottage Inn is known for its hospitality. Leaving can be murder.

Cider Cove, Maine is the premier destination for fun and relaxation. But when a body turns up, it’s the premier destination for murder.
