Gators in the Grass

By Summer Prescott

Sometimes the scariest things in the swamp...
Ain't the gators.
When a new couple rolls into the small town of LaChance, Louisiana with dreams of opening a taco stand, amateur sleuth Missy Beckett expects little more than fresh tortillas and spicy salsa. But all too soon, murder is on the menu.

What first appears to be a tragic accident quickly turns suspicious when strange clues begin surfacing in the swamp on the outskirts of town. Missy's curiosity is impossible to contain, but digging for the truth could put her at odds with a prickly detective, and worse, threaten her daughter's new job on the force.

Between secretive locals, suspicious strangers, and a growing list of potential perpetrators, Missy is positive that someone in town has something to hide. To uncover the truth, she'll have to whip up a theory, stir up conversations, and cook up a few clever theories of her own.

But the deeper she digs, the more dangerous things become. With muddy trails, swamp secrets, and a killer who seems way too adept at covering their tracks, Missy may find herself in deeper trouble than she expected.

Will she find the killer before some of Louisiana's most dangerous critters find her? Find out in this exciting southern Culinary Cozy Mystery
