Crook, Line and Sinker — Lyndsey Cole

Hannah Holiday can't help herself when a down-and-out guy shows up at The Fishy Dish with his sad-eyed beagle. She offers him a part-time job, even though everyone warns her that he's a cup short of a disaster. When trouble arrives in the form of a mysterious amount of money, everything heats up. To make matters worse, Hannah, with the help of her hunky friend, Cal, stumbles on a body. Any way Hannah slices the unfolding secrets, the biggest riddle of all will make someone richer than rich. And Hannah suspects that someone is the killer. But when evidence piles up and excuses layer on top of motives, Hannah looks like she's the one with the biggest motive for murder. Armed with information she thinks will smoke out the real killer, Hannah walks right into a red hot fire. ***Crook, Line and Sinker is approx. 310 pages and is volume 4 in the Hooked & Cooked Cozy Mystery Series.
