Okay - I've now read "Death of a Kitchen Diva" by Lee Hollis (Kensington Publishing, ISBN 9780758267375) for the third time. Here are my thoughts:
The murder of the rival of her newly-minted newspaper food/lifestyle column leads to single mom, Hayley Powell's position center-stage of the investigation. With her friends, high-octane real estate agent, Liddy Crawford (who's always at the top of the best-dressed list - if there was one in tiny Bar Harbor) and perpetually pregnant Mona Barnes (whose idea of fashion is a sweatshirt without stains), Hayley must clear her name and find out who really killed Karen Applebaum with Hayley's mother's clam chowder.
Lee Hollis has created a wonderful cast of characters in a small town. The interactions between the characters are wonderful and are definitely going to be fun to see in future mysteries. I was kept guessing and the reveal was surprising. Lee Hollis is going on to my 'must read' list of authors.
