Piper
Prescott and Police Chief Wyatt McBride might have gotten off on the wrong foot
but, over the past year, their interactions have evolved into a friendship of
sorts. And when the body of Shirley Randolph is found floating in a fishing
hole, their relationship reaches entirely new territory.
Shirley, the
town's Realtor of the Year, was also Wyatt's suspected romantic interest, and
now the residents of Brandywine Creek are speculating that Wyatt is responsible
for her death. As the town council moves to suspend the handsome lawman, Piper
springs into action to save his reputation and possibly his freedom. She
enlists the aid of her BFF, Reba Mae Johnson, along with Wyatt himself, to help
solve the puzzle and find Shirley’s real killer.
Review: The Spice Shop Mysteries are my some of my favorites. This is book 5 in the series and it just keeps getting better and better.
Piper and her bestie Reba always seem to find a dead body or a reason to investigate a death. In this book its realtor, Shirley Randolph who was found nekkid and floating in a fishing hole on Wyatt McBride's property.
Oooo!
Piper has managed to get on friendly terms with the chief and she knows that he isn't the killer. So the investigation starts.
That's when the fun starts. She gets into all sorts of fun and funny situations.
A great addition to this series

Pointing
them toward high-powered real estate tactics and possible affairs, the
investigation soon becomes personal when Piper's shop, Spice It Up!, is
burglarized, and she’s forced off the road late one night, narrowly escaping
serious injury. Realizing that she must be close to uncovering the truth, and
that the evidence against Wyatt is no longer circumstantial, Piper resorts to
drastic measures to prevent a grave miscarriage of justice.
Friends
often accuse Gail Oust of flunking retirement. While working as a
nurse/vascular technologist, Gail penned nine historical romances under the
pseudonym Elizabeth Turner for Avon, Pocket, Berkley, and Kensington. It
wasn’t until she and her husband retired to South Carolina that inspiration
struck for a mystery. Hearing the words, “maybe it’s a dead body,” while
golfing with friends fired her imagination for the Bunco Babe
Mystery series originally published by NAL. In conjunction with Beyond the Page
Publishing, the Bunco Babe series has been republished in digital format
as the Kate McCall
Mysteries complete with new titles and a whole new look. Gail has
written five Spice Shop
Mysteries for Minotaur/St. Martin’s. Her favorite pastimes are reading,
traveling, and hanging out with friends.
