Murder, She Baked
(2025)(The first book in the Hot Flashes, Cold Cases Mystery series)
A novel by Lucy Lemon
Murder, She Baked (and Then Forgot Why She Went into the Kitchen)Detective Betsy Parks has been replaced by the chief’s dimwitted son—proof that in the Whitfield P.D., nepotism is more alive and well than the murder victims she’s spent her career avenging.
Banished to the basement with a stack of forgotten cold cases, Betsy discovers a few perks: the air’s cooler, the coffee’s stronger, and best of all, no more locker-room banter from her coworkers upstairs.
When she reopens the 2002 file of Rena Reynolds—a nurse accused of poisoning her husband, Tank—Betsy’s instincts kick in. The evidence never added up, the witness statements vanished, and Rena’s been living a little too comfortably for a woman with a body in her past.
But although Rena’s hot flashes may be long gone, there’s one menopausal detective who’s just heating up—and Betsy Parks doesn’t cool off easily. If you love cozy culinary mysteries and hate hot flashes, you'll love Murder, She Baked (and Then Forgot Why She Went into the Kitchen)!
Genre: Cozy Mystery
