Description: "This may just become my favorite cozy mystery series ..." - Marjory Sorrell Rockwell, author of the Quilters Club Mysteries. The Phantom Cooks -- Marcia Lambert, Jean Turlington, and Peggy Doyle -- those three friends in a small seaside town in Southern Maine who run a part-time catering business -- are faced with their second mystery: local citizens being boiled alive. An old-time punishment for poisoners, boiling seems like a strange method for murder, so the amateur sleuths take on the case to the consternation of Police Chief Montgomery Knoble. Where will this investigation take them? Let's just say things get heated.
Brief description: Maryjane Elizabeth Jones loves to cook and share her recipes almost as much as she loves to write. She got the idea for the Phantom Cooks mysteries from a friend who actually started a catering business called Phantom Cooks, home-cooked meals delivered directly to your doorstep. Maryjane has two cats, a parakeet named Tweets, and protects her grandmother's recipe for bread pudding as if it were the Crown Jewels.
