Description
Cherry Tucker's in a stew. Art commissions dried up after her nemesis became president of the County Arts Council. Desperate and broke, Cherry and her friend, Eloise, spend a sultry summer weekend hawking their art at the Sidewinder Annual Brunswick Stew Cook-Off. When a bad case of food poisoning breaks out and Eloise dies, the police brush off her death as accidental. However, Cherry suspects someone spiked the stew and killed her friend. As Cherry calls on cook-off competitors, bitter rivals, and crooked judges, the police get steamed while the killer prepares to cook Cherry's goose. Part of the Henery Press Mystery Series Collection, if you like one, you'll probably like them all! STILL LIFE IN BRUNSWICK STEW is the second book in the Cherry Tucker humorous mystery series. Bonus: Includes book club discussion questions. Praise for Larissa Reinhart's Cherry Tucker Mystery Series: Praise for PORTRAIT OF A DEAD GUY: An entertaining mystery full of quirky characters and solid plotting. Larissa Reinhart writes with panache and flair. Highly recommended for anyone who likes their mysteries strong and their mint juleps stronger!; Jennie Bentley, NY Times bestselling author of Flipped Out;Reinhart is a truly talented author and this book was one of the best cozy mysteries we reviewed this year;We highly recommend this book to all lovers of mystery books. Our Rating: 4.5 Stars." - Mystery Tribune "The tone of this marvelously cracked book is not unlike Sophie Littlefield's brilliant A Bad Day for Sorry, as author Reinhart dishes out shovelfuls of ribald humor and mayhem. It takes a rare talent to successfully portray a beer-and-hormone-addled artist as a sympathetic and worthy heroine, but Reinhart pulls it off with tongue-in-cheek panache." - Betty Webb, Mystery Scene Magazine "Don't miss Portrait of a Dead Guy by Larissa Reinhart! Portrait is pure enjoyment, a laugh out loud mystery with some Southern romance thrown in. Five stars out of Five." -- Lynn Farris, National Mystery Review Examiner at Examiner.com
