Crumbs of Evidence
(2026)(The sixth book in the Murder in the Mixing Bowls series)
A novel by Patsy Hicks
Lou Ellsworth is catering a retirement party at Oak Haven’s oldest law firm. The founding partner is stepping aside, and his daughter is taking over. In the bustle, the firm’s receptionist passes Lou with a tight smile that conveys more fear and concern than happiness. By nightfall the young woman is found dead behind the courthouse.
A week later, whispers drift through the jail. Two inmates insist the worst parts of their cases were never true. A worried sister asks Lou if the receptionist ever confided in her. Lou did not get the chance, but she can finish what the woman began. She listens. She compares what people remember with what the records claim. With Bruiser and Brown catching what human eyes skip over, Lou follows a careful path toward the truth before someone else ends up six feet under.
A warm, small-town cozy murder mystery with Southern flavor, recipes, and two determined dogs.
Book 5 in Murder in the Mix-ing Bowls.
