Reviews"Jacobia "Jake" Tiptree, the star of Graves's Home Repair Is Homicide series...is back in this charming series launch....The characters are appealing, and down east Maine is a delightful place to visit. Graves fans will enjoy catching up with old friends." -- Publishers Weekly "Sympathetic characters, effective plot twists, a vividly described small-town Maine setting, and the baking frame add to this satisfying cozy that will appeal to fans of Joanne Fluke and Diane Mott Davidson (for the baking details) and Leslie Meier (for the Maine setting)." -- Booklist "As her handywoman heroine reinvents herself in chocolate, Graves adds enough physical danger to her comfy tale of small-town mayhem to move it into the...range of the cozy thriller. Gives new currency to the phrase "baking up a storm."." -- Kirkus Reviews

SynopsisLife just got a little sweeter in the island fishing village of Eastport, Maine. Jacobia "Jake" Tiptree and her best friend Ellie are opening a waterfront bake shop, The Chocolate Moose, where their tasty treats pair perfectly with the salty ocean breeze--and the scent of murder . . . When Jake and Ellie, who've been through a lot together, decide to open a chocolate-themed bakery, they figure it'll be a piece of cake. With Ellie's old family recipes luring in customers, they expect to make plenty of dough this Fourth of July weekend. Having family home for the holiday only sweetens the deal for Jake--until an early-season hurricane scuttles her plans. Worse, with her family scattered and stranded, health inspector Matt Muldoon is found murdered in the kitchen of The Chocolate Moose. Ellie never made a secret of her distaste for Matt, who had been raining on their parade with bogus talk of health code violations. Now, with no alibi for the night of the murder, she's in a sticky situation--and it's up to Jake to catch the real killer and keep Ellie living in the land of the free. Includes a Recipe! Praise for Sarah Graves and her Home Repair Is Homicide Mysteries! "Graves blends charming, evocative digressions about life in Eastport with an intricate plot, well-drawn characters and a wry sense of humor."-- Publishers Weekly on Dead Cat Bounce "For fans who enjoy nooks, crannies, subplots, and carpentry tips."-- Kirkus Reviews on Nail Biter, Life just got a little sweeter in the island fishing village of Eastport, Maine.
