Small-town secrets surface. Revenge served cold. A twisted cozy mystery.
When small town secrets surface, revenge is a dish best served cold.
Arden Carter, owner of culinary shop Tartarus, in the quaint southern town of Sand Hills, Alabama is in hot water. After being served an eviction notice by James Campbell, the town’s richest, most powerful, and most hated citizen, Arden confronts James and vehemently vows to get her revenge. James is found murdered shortly thereafter.
So, when the police come knocking on Arden’s door, she gives them a false alibi. It’s only a matter of time before they find out her alibi doesn’t hold water.
Arden, her best friend Teagan, and Chase, the cute new guy in town, must clear her name and find the real killer. But as they delve deeper, they uncover old town secrets buried long ago that make everyone in town a viable suspect—Seth (the dirty cop), Laura (the boring self-centered braggart), Ruth (the bitter old maid), an illegitimate child, and three zany old sisters with two Rottweilers named Smith and Wesson that pack quite a bite. Even Chase, the rich city slicker and Arden’s new love interest, is not above suspicion.
This is a small-town cozy mystery full of twists and turns that will keep you guessing until the very end. Best Served Cold will make you beg for another serving!
