A catered book club murder  Cover Image Book Book

A catered book club murder / Isis Crawford.

Crawford, Isis, (author.).

Summary:

"Sisters Bernie and Libby Simmons are used to catering lip-smacking treats to an artsy group of book lovers-until fiction spills into reality...If anything can be said about endearingly predictable Margo Hemsley, it's that she always serves elaborate desserts at her mystery book club meetings. That's why everyone fears the worst after she doesn't pick up her order from Bernie and Libby and skips out on the monthly gathering. The Simmons sisters can't imagine their acquaintance vanishing like a character from one of her favorite novels, at least not willingly. When the search ends with the discovery of a dead body, Bernie and Libby agree to help the nine remaining book club members prove their friend was murdered. But a speed read through Margo's background reveals there was more to the victim than harmless hobbies and frumpy cardigans would suggest. As the sleuthing sisters unearth scandalous secrets about the book club members, they'll have to determine who was connected to Margo's shady dealings-and who sent her to an early grave..."-- Amazon
