The French Toast Fatality
(2025)(The fourth book in the Senior Snoop Society Mysteries series)
A novel by Magnolia Murdersworth
What was supposed to be a peaceful Sunday brunch becomes a deadly affair when a food critic drops dead—and the Senior Snoop Society springs into action!
Rosemary Ruckus, a spirited former theater designer with a knack for drama, is enjoying brunch at a trendy new restaurant with her sharp-eyed friends Viola and Harriet when food critic Elliot Burgundy collapses face-first into his French toast. The verdict? Murder.
When Detective Russell—still smarting from his last encounter with the ladies—almost arrests the wrong man, the Senior Snoop Society knows they can't let an innocent chef take the fall. Armed with their keen observational skills, a lifetime of experience, and Rosemary's flair for getting into places she shouldn't be, the trio sets out to uncover the real killer.
But this case is far from simple. With a restaurant full of suspects—including a bitter rival restaurateur, a mysterious Russian bartender, a plastic surgeon with a tragic past, and her suspiciously sweet young nurse—everyone seems to have secrets worth killing for. Add in a conspiracy involving corrupt food critics, revenge plots years in the making, and a killer who's more clever than anyone suspects, and you have a recipe for the most dangerous brunch in Carmel's history.
Can three determined seniors solve the case before the real killer strikes again? Or will the investigation go down faster than their mimosas?
Perfect for fans of The Thursday Murder Club, The Sunset Years of Agnes Sharp, and classic Miss Marple, The French Toast Fatality serves up the perfect blend of cozy mystery, clever sleuthing, and laugh-out-loud humor. Join the Senior Snoop Society for their most delicious case yet—where the only thing deadlier than the murder weapon is Rosemary's determination to see justice served!
