Synopsis

Everything is shipshape at Jake and Ellies new waterfront bakery The Chocolate Moose, especially now that the annual Pirate Festival is dropping anchor in their quaint island village of Eastport, Maine. Jake and Ellie are ready for the bounty of tourists sure to flood their shop. But their plans quickly sink when the body of celebrity-foodie Henry Hadlyme is discovered in the Mooses basement. Jake and Ellie are horrified, but their shock turns to dismay when Jake is pegged for the murder. Now, to clear Jakes name and save the shop, Jake and Ellie must swashbuckle down and figure out who among Henrys numerous enemies scuttled him in the cellar. Was it a long-ago jilted sweethearts vengeful relative? His long-suffering personal assistant? Or perhaps some bitter-as-dark-chocolate unknown enemy, now aboard the mysterious ship lurking in Eastports harbor? Alas, dead men tell no tales, so Jake and Ellie will have to get to the bottom of the case on their own and find the real killer before anyone else is forced to walk the plank...

Perhaps it's time for me to realize Sarah Graves and I need to break up. We've had a long and happy relationship, but we just aren't on the same page anymore. I'm not sure where to categorize her latest books, like terrorist thriller/cozy. In any case, I know most reviews love her latest book, so I......more

The town's pirate festival promises to be good business for Jacobia "Jake" and her friend Ellie who own the local bakery. When a man turns up dead in their basement, Jake becomes the chief suspect and knows she needs to catch the person or persons responsible before she lands in jail. The bakery pla......more

I really liked this one. I thought the pirate themed festival in their town was cute. Everything happening on boats in the water. It's perfect for a cozy mystery. While boats and the open water can seem comforting and beautiful, it can also be dark and scary. This went really well in the story. I re......more
