"Recipe for Murder" by Lisa Harris



About this book:

  “Pricilla never expected to be involved in a real life mystery, but that's exactly where she finds herself when she joins her son at his hunting lodge in the beautiful Colorado mountains. A superb cook and articulate hostess, Priscilla plans an informal buffet for the guests at her son's hunting lodge. But the dinner party turns to chaos when a guest is found dead after sampling one of her salmon-filled tartlets.”

My personal Rating-
This was a little “cozy mystery” that had a murder (however, it’s not a suspense murder book), but there was a bit of a sweet romance/matchmaking and quite a bit of Spiritual Content for such a small book!


See y’all on Monday with a new review!
