Family ties… Can put you in a real bind. One thing that retiree and amateur sleuth, Loretta Barksdale loves almost as much as whipping up culinary delights with her group, the Clubhouse Cooks, is eating. So, when the group decides to do a bake sale in their peaceful Breezy Lake, FL, community, she’s all about it. Things go awry, however, when the brother of one of her friends shows up, looking raggedy and acting oddly. He seems convinced that he’s being pursued, and winds up getting side-eyed by many community members, but Loretta believes that something else might be prompting his strange behavior. When people actually do show up looking for him, Loretta’s heart goes out to her friend and she slips naturally into mama-bear mode, vowing to discover the truth about what seems to be a dangerous situation. As she digs deeper to find out what exactly is going on, Loretta finds out something that would make everything much worse, but it just might be the truth. Can she help her friend and cook up a positive resolution to what might be a scary problem? Or will she just end up getting burned? Find out in this must-read Culinary Cozy Mystery!
