Robbie Jordan’s rustic country store is growing in popularity. But when a dead body appears, it turns out that Robbie’s home-style cooking attracts hungry customers—and murder!
While Robbie scrambles through breakfast orders for her expanding clientele at Pans ‘N Pancakes, tempers run as high as the sticky August heat in South Lick, Indiana. Real-estate developer Fiona Closs plans to build a towering luxury resort at one of the most scenic hilltops in Brown County, and not everyone can see the sunny side of the imposing proposition—including Robbie’s furious Aunt Adele, who doesn’t waste a minute concocting protests and road blockades. When tensions boil over and a vocal protester is silenced forever at the resort site, Robbie ditches the griddle to catch the killer. But if slashed tires are any indication, she’ll need to crack this case before her own aunt gets served something deadly next . . .
Includes Recipes for You to Try!
Speaking of recipes, I’m excited to share one with you today as part of this blog tour!
Pell’s Yogurt-Honey Fruit Salad Dressing
This is almost too easy to include here, but I will.
Robbie serves it as a refreshing addition to fruit salad in the heat of August.
Ingredients
- 1 pint whole-milk, plain regular yogurt (Greek
- yogurt is too thick)
- 1 tablespoon local honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Directions
In a quart bowl, stir honey and vanilla into the yogurt.
Beat hard to mix. Sprinkle cinnamon over the dressing and stir in.
Serve over cut fruit. Also good with granola or plain with a spoon.
