A Very Woodsy Murder by Ellen Byron

 A Very Woodsy Murder

Book Summary

New motel owner Dee Stern has checked out of the familiar comforts in the Studio City and checked in to the quaint village of Foundgold. Running a rustic getaway in the woods sure beats LA traffic—until murder ruins the peace and quiet . . .

Down-on-her-luck sitcom writer Dee Stern is flipping the script. Twice divorced and wasting her talents on an obnoxious kids’ show, the lifelong Angeleno embraces the urge to jump in her car and keep driving. It's a road trip with no destination—until she pulls into a mid-century motel filled with cobwebs and retro charm. Nestled in the shadow of a national park, it’s a time capsule of a place that, like her, could use some work. So, in the most impulsive move of her life, Dee teams up with best friend, Jeff Cornetta—who happens to be her first ex-husband—to transform the aging ranch into the Golden Motel-of-the-Mountains, a hiker’s oasis on the edge of the wilderness . . .

But Dee and Jeff soon realize there couldn’t be two people more unprepared for the hospitality business. There’s also the panic-inducing reality of prowling bears and a general store as the only shopping spot for miles. Living and working in the middle of nowhere takes some getting used to—especially when a disrespectful guest ends up murdered! Now, with the motel duo topping the suspect list, Dee must steer clear of a meddling park ranger, face her past in show biz, and determine if the killer is a local or tourist. Because as she quickly finds out, there are many things worse than a one-star review.

My Thoughts

A Very Woodsy Murder by Ellen Byron is the debut of A Golden Motel Mysteries.  Dee Stern and Jeff are unprepared for owning a rundown motel near a state park.  A Very Woodsy Murder reminds me of an older sit-com where things are exaggerated (Dee and Jeff remind me of Lucy and Ethel).  We learn about Dee’s time in Hollywood as a screenwriter and her relationship with Jeff.  I can certainly understand why she needs a fresh start.  The motel is a near the town of Foundgold which has a population of 68 (maybe).  A nemesis of Dee’s from Hollywood checks in and gets murdered.  When the murder causes people to cancel their reservations, Dee and Jeff set out to find the guilty party.  It does not help that Deputy Sheriff Aguilar and Chief Ranger O’Bryant do not get along.  Plus, the residents of Goldsgone (that is really the name of the town) do not welcome Dee and Jeff with open arms.  Dee lacks subtlety when questioning people (she will need to acquire this skill in order to deal with guests and for future investigations) which does not earn her any friends.  Dee and Jeff are bumbling amateur detectives (which suits the story).  I wish the same details were not repeated so often.  As you can tell, there is humor scattered throughout A Very Woodsy Murder.  A Very Woodsy Murder is a lighthearted tale with a ramshackle motel, a nemesis for a guest, a roaming bear, a murdered writer, withdrawn reservations, not so subtle sleuthing, and feuding officers. 

A Very Woodsy Murder can be obtained from Amazon* as well as other major booksellers.  You can find Ellen Byron's other books here. Thank you for dropping by today.  I will return tomorrow with Chaos at the Lazy Bones Bookshop by Emmeline Duncan.  It is the first book in A Halloween Bookshop Mysteries.  I am off to get some chores done.  When you have cats, sweeping and dusting must be done frequently (I am amazed at how much hair they lose on a daily basis).  I added a couple of more books to my August TBR pile.  I am hoping to finish A Berry Suspicious Death by Peg Cochran tonight.  That will leave me with An Irish Bookshop Murder by Lucy Conneolly and Silent Evidence by Clea Koff.  I hope that you have a cheerful day!  Take care and Happy Reading!

About Bayou Book Thief

 

Bayou Book Thief (A Vintage Cookbook Mystery) 

Cozy Mystery 

1st in Series Setting - New Orleans Louisiana 

Publisher ‏ : ‎ Berkley (June 7, 2022) 

Mass Market Paperback ‏ : ‎ 304 pages 

A fantastic new cozy mystery series with a vintage flair from USA Today bestselling and Agatha Award–winning author Ellen Byron.

Twenty-eight-year-old widow Ricki James leaves Los Angeles to start a new life in New Orleans after her showboating actor husband perishes doing a stupid internet stunt. The Big Easy is where she was born and adopted by the NICU nurse who cared for her after Ricki’s teen mother disappeared from the hospital.

Ricki’s dream comes true when she joins the quirky staff of Bon Vee Culinary House Museum, the spectacular former Garden District home of late bon vivant Genevieve “Vee” Charbonnet, the city’s legendary restauranteur. Ricki is excited about turning her avocation – collecting vintage cookbooks – into a vocation by launching the museum’s gift shop, Miss Vee’s Vintage Cookbooks and Kitchenware. Then she discovers that a box of donated vintage cookbooks contains the body of a cantankerous Bon Vee employee who was fired after being exposed as a book thief. 

The skills Ricki has developed ferreting out hidden vintage treasures come in handy for investigations. But both her business and Bon Vee could wind up as deadstock when Ricki’s past as curator of a billionaire’s first edition collection comes back to haunt her.

Will Miss Vee’s Vintage Cookbooks and Kitchenware be a success … or a recipe for disaster?

My Thoughts

Bayou Book Thief by Ellen Byron is the debut of A Vintage Cookbook Mysteries.  This is a cute, lighthearted Southern cozy mystery.  There is a cast of unique characters.  Miracle “Ricki” Fleur di Lis James has left her life in Los Angeles behind for a fresh start in New Orleans where she was born.  Ricki comes up with the idea for Miss Vee’s Vintage Cookbook and Kitchenware Shop which is to be housed in the Bon Vee Culinary House Museum.  She is fortunate that the idea is approved.  One morning, Ricki is opening donations that arrived that morning with help from other workers at Bon Vee.  They open an old trunk to find disgraced former docent, Franklin inside.  Ricki is worried when the staff and volunteers come under suspicion.  She feels the police are not working quickly enough to solve the crime, so Ricki decides to do a little investigating on her own.  Ricki uncovers what she believes could have been the motif.  She needs to follow the thread and see if it leads her to the killer.  

Bayou Book Thief contains Ellen Byron’s fun writing style.  She provides us with quirky characters and plenty of Southern charm.  I enjoyed the descriptions of New Orleans, the vintage cookware, and the cookbooks.  There is humor sprinkled throughout the story that will have readers chuckling.  The whodunit was entertaining.  No one was sad to see Franklin end up dead in a trunk.  The man was not liked.  The more Ricki learns about the man, the more she can see why someone murdered him (just surprised it did not happen sooner).  Detective Nina Rodriguez is nice and accepts information from Ricki.  She does give her a warning about sleuthing on her own.  There are clues to help readers solve the mystery before the reveal.  I enjoyed the takedown scene (it will have you laughing).  There is a secondary mystery involving an air conditioning repairman.  I do not know how Ricki put up with the heat and humidity.  I would have gone out and purchased a window unit rather than a swamp cooler.  Southern heat along with the humidity can be brutal.  There is a large cast of characters so it can be difficult to keep them all straight.  It will get easier as the series progresses.  There are delectable food descriptions that will have you craving a po’ boy, beignets, and shrimp etouffee.  I loved the ending.  It has me eager for the next A Vintage Cookbook Mystery.  There are recipes at the end of the book as well as a preview of Wined and Died in New Orleans.  Bayou Book Thief is finer than a frog hair split four ways with a man who is as useless as a screen door on a submarine, a bounty of books, a vile victim, a diligent detective, an artful air conditioning repairman, warm weather, and a riled Ricki.  

Bayou Book Thief is available from Amazon, B&N, Kobo, Google Books, Alibris, IndieBound, and PenguinRandomHouse.  The next A Vintage Cookbook Mystery is Wined and Died in New Orleans which publishes February 7, 2023.  You can find Ellen Byron's other novels here.  As part of the tour, Ellen Byron is giving away one print copy of Bayou Book Thief (sorry, but US only).  You can click here to enter or use the Rafflecopter form below.  Good Luck!  Thank you for joining me today.  Tomorrow I am featuring Death by Beach Read by Eva Gates.  It is the latest A Lighthouse Library Mystery.  I hope that you have a day filled with joy.  We need more happiness in our lives.  Do not forget to leave a comment for an extra entry in the contest for a copy of the Bayou Book Thief.  Good Luck!  Take care, stay cool, and Happy Reading!

Cajun Kiss of Death by Ellen Byron: Review & Giveaway!

Cajun Kiss of Death

 

About Cajun Kiss of Death

 

Cajun Kiss of Death: A Cajun Country Mystery 

 

The next shot from Cupid's bow may be fatal in USA Today bestselling, Agatha Award-winning author Ellen Byron's hearty and delightful seventh Cajun Country mystery.

In Pelican, Louisiana, Valentine's Day has a way of warming the heart, despite the February chill. But the air at Crozat Plantation B&B turns decidedly frigid when celebrity chef Phillippe Chanson checks in. And when the arrogant Phillippe--in town to open his newest Cajun-themed restaurant--perishes in a fiery boat crash, Maggie Crozat's dear friend JJ lands in very cold water.

Did JJ, proprietor of Junie's Oyster Bar and Dance Hall, murder Phillippe because he feared the competition? Might Maggie's mother, Ninette, have bumped off the chef for stealing one of her cherished recipes? Or was the culprit a local seafood vendor, miffed because Phillippe was somehow able to sell oysters for a remarkably reasonable price, despite an oyster shortage?

Maggie had planned to devote her February to art lessons in New Orleans, a present from her sweetheart, Bo. But now she has to focus on helping her friend and her mother cross a murder charge off the menu. Meanwhile, Maggie receives a series of anonymous gifts that begin as charming but grow increasingly disturbing. Does Maggie have an admirer--or a stalker? And are these mysterious gifts somehow related to Phillippe's murder?

Blood may be thicker than water, but this case is thicker than gumbo. And solving it will determine whether Maggie gets hearts and roses--or hearse and lilies--this Valentine's Day.

My Thoughts

A few weeks later just before Valentine’s Day, Celebrity Chef Phillippe Chanson is opening a restaurant in Pelican.  The haughty chef has quite a stir in the town with his attitude, competitive drive, and recipe thievery.  The chef dies with fanfare on the opening night of his restaurant leaving behind a surfeit of suspects including a beloved local restaurant owner and Maggie Crozat’s own mother.  Maggie lays down her paint brush to don her sleuthing cap.  Can Maggie paint the killer into a corner for the local police before Valentine’s Day?  Cajun Kiss of Death by Ellen Byron is the 7^th A Cajun Country Mystery.  While it can be read as a standalone, I recommend reading this delightful series in order.  It will allow you to get to know the characters and the town of Pelican, Louisiana.  The characters are what make A Cajun Country Mysteries.   I have loved watching these characters develop over the course of the series.  Maggie has come a long way since Plantation Shudders. Maggie has a great family that is loving, welcoming, big hearts, and a wonderful sense of humor.  Maggie’s grandmere is one feisty woman (her granddaughter is a chip off the old block).  Cajun Kiss of Death has an opening that will delight fans of the series.  There is food, family, fireworks, and fun.  The whodunit was well plotted and a great one to solve.  There is a surplus of suspects in this mystery with a plot twist or two along the way.  I love how the author includes the history, culture, and cuisine of Louisiana.  Ellen Byron brings Louisiana alive with her vivid descriptions.  It is a place I want to visit.  A Cajun Kiss of Death was over far too quickly.  Based on the epilogue, Cajun Kiss of Death is the final book in this charming Southern series.  I am glad the author provided the epilogue which gives those who love the series a contented conclusion.  Cajun Kiss of Death is finer than a frog’s hair with purloined recipes, a jubilant New Year’s Eve gathering, flaring fireworks, stinky trash, stalker secret admirer, and a Valentine’s Day revelation.

Are you ready to read Cajun Kiss of Death? Cajun Kiss of Death is available at PenguinRandomHouse, Amazon, B&N, Kobo, and IndieBound.  You can find the other novels in A Cajun Country Mystery series here.  You can follow Ellen Byron on Amazon so you will be notified when she releases a new book.  Would you like to win a print copy of Murder in the Bayou Boneyard (open to those in the US only)?  You can click here to enter or use the Rafflecopter form below.  Good Luck!  Thank you for joining me today.  I will be back tomorrow with The Haunted Homecoming by Angie Fox.  It is the 10th book in The Southern Ghost Hunter Mysteries.  I hope that you have a joyful day, y'all.  Take care, be kind, and Happy Reading!

Murder in the Bayou Boneyard: A Cajun Country Mystery

Cozy Mystery

6th in Series

Publisher: Crooked Lane Books (September 8, 2020)

ISBN-10: 1643854607

ISBN-13: 978-1643854601

Maggie Crozat has the Halloween heebie-jeebies in USA Today bestselling and Agatha Award-winning author Ellen Byron's howlingly funny sixth Cajun Country mystery.

Maggie Crozat, proprietor of a historic Cajun Country B&B, prefers to let the good times roll. But hard times rock her hostelry when a new cell phone app makes it easy for locals to rent their spare rooms to tourists. With October--and Halloween--approaching, she conjures up a witch-crafty marketing scheme to draw visitors to Pelican, Louisiana.

Five local plantation B&Bs host "Pelican's Spooky Past" packages, featuring regional crafts, unique menus, and a pet costume parade. Topping it off, the derelict Dupois cemetery is the suitably sepulchral setting for the spine-chilling play Resurrection of a Spirit. But all the witchcraft has inevitably conjured something: her B&B guests are being terrified out of town by sightings of the legendary rougarou, a cross between a werewolf and vampire.

When, in the Dupois cemetery, someone costumed as a rougarou stumbles onstage during the play--and promptly gives up the ghost, the rougarou mask having been poisoned with strychnine, Maggie is on the case. But as more murders stack up, Maggie fears that Pelican's spooky past has nothing on its bloodcurdling present.

My Thoughts

Murder in the Bayou Boneyard by Ellen Byron is the 6^th A Cajun Country Mystery.  Maggie Crozat came up with “Pelican’s Spooky Past” to help draw customers to the local bed-and-breakfasts.  It runs the month of October with various activities including a play in the Dupois cemetery.  The Crozat family are also getting to meet a distant cousin and her family who will be arriving from Canada.  One night they hear a guest screaming outside.  She claims to have seen the legendary Rougarou.  Maggie writes it off as a prank until guests from other bed-and-breakfasts have similar sightings.  Maggie is watching the “Resurrection of a Spirit” in the cemetery when a Rougarou stumbles onto the stage and collapses.  When the mask is removed, it turns out to be Maggie’s new cousin, Susannah MacDowell who is now dead.  Maggie and her family come under suspicion because of a recent altercation with the victim. When a second death occurs, Maggie knows she needs to solve this case quickly before Pelican turns into a ghost town.  

I thought Murder in the Bayou Boneyard was well-written with developed characters.  I always enjoy visiting Pelican, Louisiana.  There is nothing better than to be there at Halloween.  I enjoyed the spooky happening and learning about the Rougarou.  I just loved that this was a double mystery.  There are spooky sightings, a pesky police detective, a chatty parrot, and various suspects.  This was a fun mystery to solve. Murder in the Bayou Boneyard had plenty going on in it which made the story zip by so quickly.  There were some quirky characters including bird who lands Maggie in hot water.  Maggie and Gran are both engaged.  They are going to have a double wedding.  Gran has taken over the wedding planning for the extravaganza.  She is particularly enjoying the cake tastings.  I just loved the screaming doorbell at the Crozat Bed and Breakfast (I want one for my house).  Murder in the Bayou Boneyard can be read as a standalone. I recommend reading this entertaining series in order.  It will allow you to know the characters, their relationships, and the town.  The ending was delightful.  There is a bounty of food in this story (had my stomach growling).  There are recipes at the end for some of the items featured in the book including Ninette’s Holy Trinity Chicken and Cajun Pecan Cookie Fingers.  Murder in the Bayou Boneyard is an entertaining cozy mystery with a creepy cemetery, a wrathful Rougarou, a determined detective, a prolix parrot, multiple murders, a bold bridezilla, and problematic property line polemic.
