About this ebook
In between hunting for bargains, she’s hunting for a killer . . . “This funny and quick-paced series keeps getting better.” —RT Book Reviews
Hayley Powell, food and cocktails columnist for Bar Harbor’s Island Times, is . . . well, kind of broke. So when she’s selected for that extreme coupon-clipping reality game show coming to town, she’s thrilled—especially when her competition is nasty nurse Candace Culpepper. But when Haley stumbles across a face-down-in-the-snow Candace—scissors gleaming between her shoulders—she knows the next thing she’ll be selected for will probably be a police line-up.
Meanwhile, though Hayley’s BFF Mona was only joking about “taking Candace out,” Bruce Linney, the Island Times crime reporter, definitely isn’t laughing. And what about the smarmy, cold-hearted host of the show, Drew Nickerson, who may have been having a steamy affair with the intentionally iced nurse? Hayley needs to cut to the chase and find the killer. Everything may hinge on a stray coupon, but Hayley better keep her eyes on the real grand prize: staying out of permanent cold storage!
Includes seven delectable recipes from Hayley’s kitchen!
Praise for Death of a Kitchen Diva
“Delicious and satisfying. Another course, please.” —Carolyn Hart

I'm a (nearly extreme) couponer, and an avid mystery novel reader. So, when I saw this book at my local library, I snagged it. Took me maybe 3 days to read. It was funny and intriguing, with just enough couponing "inside jokes" to really pull me in as a reader who coupons.
