Marinade for Murder: A Hemlock Falls Mystery

#8 in Claudia Bishop's 'Hemlock Falls Mystery series'


Just when Sarah Quilliam (Quill) hopes a wealthy investor from Finland will allow her to buy back her beloved Inn at Hemlock Falls, things start to unravel. Her sister Meg, the Inn's 3-star chef, plans to marry and move to New York; Quill's investor delays signing the check -- and mysterious "accidents" occur after a couple of Hollywood scriptwriters and their producer show up at the Inn. Quill and Meg set out to uncover the truth -- before the number of dead bodies can escalate further. Fast-paced, witty, with a pitch-perfect ear for dialogue.
