Biscuits and Slashed Browns

Biscuits and Slashed Browns is the 4th Country Store Mystery by Maddie Day.   I hadn't read this series in a bit as I started on her Cape Cod series at the end of 2021 and read a few from that series in Mass.  This series is set in South Lick, IN, and mentions many areas of that state that I am familiar with.  This always makes reading a book that much more enjoyable for me.  

I always enjoy reading about Robbie Jordan and her restaurant.  This particular book involves a Maple Syrup Festival which was a unique twist on the usual setups for this series.  The dynamics between Robbie and the suspects is a bit more contentious than many of the other books by Maddie Day but I feel this lends an air of authenticity to the story.  All in all this is fun series that includes cooking and cycling references.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

great story with surprising end

Good cozy set in a cafe setting. Plenty of suspects and multiple mysteries surrounding this So Indiana town. Robbie Jordan is an intriguing character who is overcoming relationship woes while embarking on a new one. The local vernacular makes for some truly laughable moments
