The Missing Dough

A small town pizzeria proprietor must once again serve up justice when her sister's fiancé is accused of murder in this culinary cozy mystery.

The only thing Eleanor Swift loves more than serving up the best pizza in Timber Ridge, North Carolina, is her sister Maddy. So when Maddy's cheating ex-husband Grant shows up with some pie-in-the-sky plan to win her back, Eleanor is happy to see Maddy show him the door. But they both know Grant isn't done yet, especially when he picks a fight with Maddy's fiancé Bob in front of the whole town.

Naturally, when Grant is later found stabbed in the heart with a barbeque skewer, the police have Bob pinned to the top of their suspect list. To top things off, it turns out that Maddy stands to gain a lot of dough from Grant's death. Now he and Eleanor need to catch the real killer before they wind up trading in slices for the slammer!

Includes a delicious pizza recipe!
