Murder with Cucumber Sandwiches by Karen Rose Smith - Review of the third book in Daisy's Tea Garden Mystery series


BACK  OF  THE  BOOK  BLURB
Daisy's Tea Garden in Pennsylvania's Amish country
is known fore its elegant finger foods--but now owner
Daisy Swanson has to finger a killer ...

Restaurant critic Derek Schumaker, notorious for his bitter reviews, is about to visit Daisy's Tea Garden, and Daisy and Aunt Iris simmering with anxiety. A bad word from the culinary curmudgeon could really hurt their business, but Daisy tries to stay confident. After all, how can he resist her cucumber sandwiches with pimento spread--not to mention the cheesy cauliflower soup and strawberry walnut salad?

Schumaker takes a to-go order when the afternoon tea service is done, which Daisy hopes is a good sign. But when he perishes from a seizure, it looks like his food was dosed with something deadly. Considering a threat that recently appeared on his blog--and whispers of scandal in his past--Daisy has quite an assortment of suspects to sift through . . .

MY  REVIEW

Another enjoyable cozy and some good sleuthing. I am enjoying this series and have already started the next book, "Murder with Cherry Tarts". I will say that Cherry Tarts sound better than Cucumber Sandwiches, lol. I like cucumbers but not on a sandwich.
