Publisher's Summary

With summer approaching, Estes Park is abuzz with flowers, baking, tourists, and...murder.

Tourist season is about to begin, and the lovely weather has Winifred Page and her corgi sidekick, Watson, leaving the comfort of the Cozy Corgi Bookshop and Bakery to reluctantly attend a celebration at the Black Bear Roaster coffee shop. But a chill of uncertainty settles over Fred when a choking death doesn't seem so accidental - despite the dry, hazardous scones.

As Fred and Police Sergeant Branson Wexler rekindle a possible romance, Fred shares her suspicions. But is she seeing murder at every turn? Learning to trust her gut feelings, Fred risks the ire of the coffee shop owner to investigate not one but two deaths.

As suspects and motives abound, old resentments are uncovered, and Fred and Watson build new friendships even as they follow the crumbs to find clues to a killer.

Another enjoyable story

Another enjoyable installment in the Cozy Corgi series.

Along with the town of Midsomer from the TV, Estes Park is another town you don't want to visit if you was to live.

Fred and Watson are on the trail out another mysterious murder. I actually guessed this one early on, but it was still fun working my way through all the red herrings

The narration was again enjoyable to listen to.

Now on to the next murder...

More depth than the title implies

The Cozy Corgi books are a gun mystery series, with all the classic cozy mystery themes: a bookshop, a bakery AND a cute pet.
This one touches well on some serious themes. There is also a satisfying development in the lives of the regulars, and a few more good additions I hope will become regular.
