Bread, Dead and Wed — Sherri Bryan

What happens when small-town murder meets a big-hearted café owner?
Light, clean, fun, cozy mysteries, set in an English coastal town, with characters who'll stay with you long after you've finished reading, and recipes to try for yourself. No gore, graphic language, sex or violence, and no cliffhangers!

Well, you know what they say about too many cooks...
Sharp-tongued food critic and TV baking show judge, Roman Haley, has it all; fame, fortune, wealth, a bevy of adoring fans... and a list of enemies as long as a ten-foot pole.
When he offers a raffle prize of a cookery course at his school in the coastal town of St. Eves, no one expects it to result in murder. Roman Haley's murder, to be precise.
As the investigation into begins, it seems there's no shortage of people who had motive enough to want him dead, and witnesses soon become suspects as long-buried secrets are uncovered.
Was Roman murdered by one of his students?
Or maybe his long-term, and long-suffering assistant, wanted him dead?
Had the tutors at the school simply had enough of his cruelty, his threats and his blackmailing ways?
Or could his murderer be his long-time rival, the Executive Chef at St. Eves' only five-star hotel?
As Charlotte Costello awaits the birth of her second child, she watches the murder investigation unfold from the sidelines, with loyal friend and politically-incorrect senior citizen, Ava Whittington, by her side, and sharpens her sleuthing instincts once more as the hunt for a killer begins.
And, as she becomes a mother again, she makes a decision that will change her life forever.

This is a clean mystery read with no graphic violence, profanity or sex.
