Great Autumn Reads!

NOVEMBER 2010

 

Black Beans & Vice by J.B. Stanley, #5 in the Supper Club Mystery series.  The Flab Five's creative new strategy to slim down?  Hypnotherapy!  And James has new motivation for laying off the Krispy Kremes; his adorable son Eliot and a re-kindled romance with his ex-wife.  But someone doesn't approve, as evidenced by the gruesome "messages" threatening the happy family. On top of this, two sudden deaths have occurred: a councilman and a young animal rights advocate.  With guiltless grasshopper parfait to sustain them, the Flab Five team up to solve another delectable, food-filled mystery.  (Includes tempting recipes!)

Double Knit Murders by Maggie Sefton, #1 and #2 in the Knitting Shop Mysteries.  In Knit One, Kill Two, Kelly Flynn returns to Colorado for her aunt's funeral only to suspect that the woman's death was not an accident. With the help of the knitting regulars at House of Lambspun, Kelly's about to get a few lessons in creating a sumptuously colored scarf-and in luring a killer out of hiding. In Needled to Death, Kelly visits her friend Vickie's alpaca farm, and finds her splayed out on her original hand-woven rug, blood seeping into the design. Kelly can't resist investigating-even if it means taking a break from the sweater she's been knitting in the round.

AUGUST

Tricia’s sister, Angelica, considers herself to be the next celebrity chef. To celebrate her first cookbook, Angelica hosts a launch party, but sadly the only guest is an oversized cutout of herself. Worse than the lack of fans is a nearby gas explosion that injures her boyfriend, Bob Kelly, the head of the Chamber of Commerce.

Tricia’s never been a fan of Bob, but when she reads that Bob is being tight-lipped about the “accident” and how it killed the owner of the town’s history bookstore, it’s time to take action. As the incriminating details emerge, Tricia gets wrapped up in a murder that proves to be as spine-tingling as the books that line her shelves…
