A Room with a Roux by Sarah Fox is the seventh book in the Pancake House Mystery series. Marley and her husband Brett get a quick getaway to nearby Holly Lodge. It seems to be the perfect break until they stumble upon a body buried in the snow. Books that venture away from the normal setting can be problematic. This is not my favorite in the series for that reason. I did find it to be a nice light read with an enjoyable mystery. I will be back for book number eight!
The fourth book in the Abby McCree Mystery series by Alexis Morgan is Death by Intermission. Abby and Tripp are having date night at the town's Movies in the Park event, but Abby cannot keep her thoughts away from her mom and her mom's new boyfriend. Thoughts of everything are wiped out when Abby and her mom discover a body while cleaning up after the event. With her mom's boyfriend as the main suspect, Abby launches her own investigation. This could be my favorite book in the series. The only drawback for me is Abby's mom Phoebe. Phoebe is the very definition of a spoiled brat, and Abby is less likable with Phoebe around. Aside from that I enjoyed the book and look forward to the next.
Killer Comfort Food by Lynn Cahoon is the fifth book in the Farm to Fork Mystery series. Angie is worried she is going to lose her farm to a big processing plant. There are several intertwined plotlines in this book. Among them are a missing woman tied to a lawyer for the plant, criminal activity, and an employee being stalked by her ex. Even though this book has quite a bit going on, everything ties together nicely and kept me enthralled until the end.
