A cozy café, a killer on the loose, and recipes to die for.
P ounded returns readers to Chicago's beloved Whipped and Sipped Café, where owner Alene Baron is drawn into a deadly mystery when a child's birthday sleepover ends in a 3 a.m. medical emergency. Café owner Alene Baron expects a long night-not a murder investigation. As a family friend falls into a coma and another relative dies under suspicious circumstances, whispers of poison spread through the community.
Whipped and Sipped Café becomes the gathering place where worried friends share theories, old grudges resurface, and hidden secrets begin to emerge. With the help of her detective boyfriend, Frank Shaw, Alene must sift through gossip, motives, and long-buried resentments to uncover the truth.
Between serving pancakes at the café and searching for a missing teenager, Alene must uncover long-buried secrets before a clever killer serves up another deadly surprise.
As author Laurie Buchanan writes, "The suspense is delicious, and the storytelling is irresistible." Warm, witty, and twist-filled, Pounded is a cozy mystery that keeps readers guessing.
