Description

Mallory Beck isn't in the habit of involving herself in local politics, but when she supports a new friend at a meeting to save the local library and the main speaker is found dead on the steps of the town hall, she finds herself deep in the heart of another murder investigation. Her cat, Hunch, who loves a good mystery, is thrilled and, as usual, helps her discover a key clue.

Mallory's clever friend and long-ago crush, Alex, is on the case. He was recently promoted to detective within the Honeysuckle Grove Police Department, but when he's paired with a lackadaisical superior who continually botches investigations, Mallory and her famously delicious cooking come to the rescue.

After all, the easiest way to a suspect's truth might just be through their stomach.
