Cheddar Late Than Dead

By Linda Reilly

Book Overview

"A complex mystery and yummy grilled cheese recipes. What's not to like?"-- Kirkus Reviews

A cozy wedding shower turns criminal when the groom ends up dead--and grilled cheese caf owner Carly Hale is on the case.

Carly Hale thought catering a bridal shower would be a chance to show off her newest grilled cheese creations--not get tangled in another murder. But when the groom crashes the party and doesn't make it out alive, things go from melty to messy fast.

The bride's blow-up with her fianc was dramatic, sure--but murder? Carly's not so sure. With her friend under suspicion and the whole town speculating, Carly can't help poking around. After all, she's got a knack for uncovering secrets--and a few loyal locals (and one adorable pup) on her side.

As clues stack up like a triple-decker sandwich, Carly follows the trail through jealous rivals, wedding drama, and a mystery that's anything but cold.

Set in snowy Balsam Dell, Cheddar Late Than Dead delivers all the cozy charm, small-town gossip, and toasty suspense fans of the genre love. Warm, witty, and satisfying to the last page.

Cozy Mystery

This is a Cozy Mystery, and this is the third book in the Grilled Cheese Mysteries series. I have read and reviewed the other books in this series before picking up this book, but I do think this book can be read as a standalone. I love the characters in this book, and I really love the grilled cheese shop and setting in this series. I am sad that there were not more scenes in this book that were in the grill cheese shop. I really miss the grilled cheese shop in this book. I do think there was more of Carly (the main character and the owner of the Grilled Cheese shop) putting her nose into the mystery which was fun to follow, and I really enjoyed that. This book has Carly catering Grilled Cheese at a shower, and that is where Carly finds herself put into another mystery to solve. I loved the characters and mystery in this book. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.
