Things start to boil over at the annual Lobster Stew Cook-Off when an award-winning recipe is stolen and a seven-time contest champion mysteriously disappears—leaving Candy no choice but to find out who in Cape Willington, Maine, would get steamed enough to break the law.
Quick Thoughts on This Book From Julie:
I had a hard time getting through the first few chapters of this book. It didn't seem to be moving quick enough for me, but once I got to the Lobster Stew Cookoff I was hooked. This was a charming little cozy - the author did a great job of capturing life in the small seaside town in Maine. The mystery was pretty easy to figure out but Candy and her friends kept things interesting!!
