by Ginny Gold
Kori Cooke loves living in her hometown of Hermit Cove and running her dream business—The Early Bird Café. For two years she’s been the sole breakfast spot in town, so when her culinary rival from cooking school, Tessa Doyle, moves to the small town, Kori can’t help but think she’s just there to compete.Suddenly, Tessa’s Sunrise and Shine Café is under attack, with a rock through the window on Monday morning. Kori knows she’s innocent but still doesn’t feel much empathy for her breakfast nemesis. But when Kori gets arrested and grilled by Detective Gunn and childhood friend Lieutenant Zach Gulch, she can’t help but wonder if she’s the new target. And when things escalate to Tessa’s murder, Kori comes under more scrutiny. Will she and best friend Nora Farmer be able to crack the case before she’s on the receiving end of a deadly dish? Or is she in more danger than she realizes and should skip town to avoid the heated investigation?
