A Killer Recipe

A Coastal Bakery Cozy Mystery

By: Sally Winters

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

When Nelly Hartley is invited to judge the Golden Whisk Baking Competition at Rolling Wave Cove's annual Harvest Fair, she's honored—and terrified. After five years of solving murders in her adopted hometown, she's finally being recognized for her baking expertise rather than her sleuthing skills. But when one of her fellow judges is killed in a shocking accident that turns out to be anything but accidental, Nelly finds herself stirring up secrets that have been simmering for fifteen years.

Food critic Douglas Ramsey built his career on charm and folksy wisdom, but beneath the friendly smile lies a man who destroyed lives with a single devastating review. Now someone has served him a dish best eaten cold, and the list of suspects includes everyone he ever wronged. As Nelly peels back layers of old grudges and fresh grief, she discovers that the truth is far more heartbreaking than she imagined—and that justice doesn't always taste as sweet as revenge.

In this satisfying conclusion to the beloved Baked by the Sea Mysteries series, Nelly's journey comes full circle as she faces her most personal case yet. With Bruno at her side, Trudy on the trail, and Cal waiting at home, she must untangle a web of pain and loss before an innocent person pays for someone else's sins. Because in Rolling Wave Cove, the recipe for murder requires only three ingredients: time, patience, and a lifetime of sorrow.
