About this eBook

From author Lena Gregory comes a tasty summer murder mystery...


Danika Delaney is thrilled that her old fashioned malt shop, the Coffee & Cream Café, has gotten a catering contract for the biggest party of the season, the Rutherford Manor Fourth of July gala. She’ll be providing desserts for the party as well as attending the exclusive event on Eastern Long Island.


However her path to the gala quickly becomes a rocky road...


Dani arrives at the event, only to find the gala's hostess, Cressida Rutherford, dead! What's worse, one of Dani's signature parfaits sits next to the dead woman, with what looks like peanuts in it—a food Cressida is severely allergic to. Amid the melted ice cream mess, Dani initially blames herself, thinking she made a mistake while rushing with the desserts. However she quickly learns that what appeared to be an accident was actually foul play, and suddenly Dani has to spring into action proving that she isn't the perpetrator. Along with her friends, Dani uncovers a string of people in Cressida's life who might have wanted the socialite dead. Can she prove her innocence and make sure the killer gets their just desserts?

Rocky Road to Murder is a wonderfully muddled, twisted, cozy mystery with sparkling characters! I love Dani, Gwen, Eli, Jake, Uncle Jimmy and Sunday dinner at the Delaneys! This time Dani will be sleuthing to prove she did not kill the victim. Dani and Jake hit a rough patch when he takes her from the ice cream shop in handcuffs! With too many events on the same day, many suspects who might want the victim dead, a Dani wanna-be, high-jinks at dinner and more, this intriguing mystery kept me reading too far into the early morning hours. I can't wait patiently for the next installment!
