A cooking contest becomes a fry to the finish in the new Deep Fried Mystery from the author of Out of the Dying Pan

Fry another day.
 
The town of Wrensdale is abuzz with excitement when Steeltop Foods sponsors a cooking contest to promote its new product, the Flavor Dial. With a $25,000 prize at stake, all the contestants are on edge, including Talia Marby, owner of Fry Me A Sliver. She hopes her mini deep-fried apple pies will win her the money to pay off the renovations on her restaurant. But when Norma Ferguson wins with her flaky-top chicken stew, the tensions dial up even more.
 
After Norma is found dead at her cooking station, the police suspect a losing contestant got a little too hot under the collar. Now it’s crunch time as Talia works to catch the killer and clear her name before another cook gets burned.

Includes delicious recipes!

"You had me at deep-fried haddock and malt vinegar. This is a terrific book--smart, sassy, and a little bit scary. Everything a good cozy should be!"--Laura Childs, New York Times bestselling author of Egg Drop Dead
