Publisher's summary

With summer approaching, Estes Park is abuzz with flowers, baking, tourists, and...murder.

Tourist season is about to begin, and the lovely weather has Winifred Page and her corgi sidekick, Watson, leaving the comfort of the Cozy Corgi Bookshop and Bakery to reluctantly attend a celebration at the Black Bear Roaster coffee shop. But a chill of uncertainty settles over Fred when a choking death doesn't seem so accidental - despite the dry, hazardous scones.

As Fred and Police Sergeant Branson Wexler rekindle a possible romance, Fred shares her suspicions. But is she seeing murder at every turn? Learning to trust her gut feelings, Fred risks the ire of the coffee shop owner to investigate not one but two deaths.

As suspects and motives abound, old resentments are uncovered, and Fred and Watson build new friendships even as they follow the crumbs to find clues to a killer.

How can you go wrong 👍🏻

Another great story in this series. If you haven’t started this series make sure to listen to the first one. Even though each story can stand on its own, why should it?

Thumbs up

First book from Mildred That I was able to figure out who done it before the end. However, I would like to see some of the books with Fred, helping solve a crime other than murder, because if it keeps going this way, the only people left in town will be her family.

worse every book

I wouldn't have thought it possible but the h seems to get stupider every book (although it's been a while since I tried this series so I may have forgotten just HOW stupid she is). And we're supposed to believe she's almost 40? really??
I only gave it 2☆ cos I like the setting and the dog (who seems to have as little opinion of her as I do)

narration

I love the characters and storyline but in my opinion the narrator's voice is too young for Fred, who is in her late 30s.

Gotcha

I usually guess the culprit, but not this time, I was guessing up to the reveal.

Scornful Scones

I loved getting into the mystery. I had no clue who the killer was going to be and it was a complete shock to me when it was revealed. I loved the new characters introduced and I really enjoyed relaxing into this story.
