For Whom the Bread Rolls

Pancake House Mystery Series, Book 2

By: Sarah Fox

Narrated by: Marguerite Gavin

Tourist season is in full swing in the small seaside town of Wildwood Cove, and Marley McKinney couldn't be happier. Since taking over the Flip Side restaurant, she's made a few close friends, adopted a cat named Flapjack, and started dating her childhood crush. The only cloud on the horizon is local nuisance Ida Winkler, who blames Marley for landing her nephew in prison. Trying to get a rise out of Marley, Ida's been making crank calls and even vandalizing the pancake house.

The police can't do much about the pranks, so Marley sets out to bury the hatchet once and for all. But someone's beat her to it - in the most shocking way possible. After stumbling across Ida's dead body, Marley's suddenly the number one suspect in her murder. Clearing her good name is going to be a tall order, but Marley's not about to let Ida keep ruining her life - especially from beyond the grave.

Easy Listen, Book 2, Pancake House Mystery

A crotchety old neighbor, that no one likes is found murdered, and Marley, the new owner of the Pancake House is a person of interest in the murder. It seems that Ida Winkler had been blackmailing most of the town, and there's no shortage of suspects for the crime. But Marley, fearful of losing customers at the Pancake House, makes it her business to search out who might have killed the mean old woman. The writing is clean, the atmosphere in Washington State peaceful and descriptive, and the narration good. A great listen for a little "escape" from heavier books and subjects. I will definitely be listening to more in the series.

Another good installment

I really enjoyed For Whom the Bread Rolls, the characters were well developed and the story had all the ingredients to make an enjoyable cozy mystery.

Not as good as the first one

Just OK…long & involved & goes no where. Very disappointing and just goes no where. A waste of time.

it's a cozy mystery.. and...

cozy mysteries are basically the same... wrong place, tho u tell the character not to do the stupid thing they are bound to do.... nosiness that for sure is going to cause trouble.... and when it does the characters are always shocked. u know everything that's going to happen before it does... u know who "done it"... and it is what it is. still think that Marley needs shot to keep her from doing something stupid... but characters like her will never learn. dumb heroine are exhausting...

Slow down!

Narrator is really hard to enjoy, she reads way, way too fast. So-so characters and mystery.
