Eggs in a Casket Description
From Booklist
While delivering flowers to a cemetery, Suzanne and Toni, owners of the Cackleberry Café, find the body of former prison warden Lester Drummond in a grave dug for someone else. They tell Sheriff Doogie that they saw Suzanne’s friend Missy driving away quickly before they pulled up. Suzanne can’t believe Missy could have murdered the man, though he had long been hitting on her. At the café, the women collect praise for their food, along with local gossip about Drummond. They learn that his ex-wife was staying with him, that he was a regular at the local gym, and that many disliked the man. The sheriff focuses on Missy and a Taser found in her apartment, but Suzanne continues to look elsewhere for the killer, who is very well hidden among the red herrings. Eggs in a Casket provides another well-balanced meal of food references, appealing small-town characters, and an engaging mystery. Fans of Joanne Fluke will savor the story and the recipes. --Amy Alessio
