Deadly Chocolate Addiction

A chocoholic comes to Death by Chocolate, praises Lindsay’s desserts and intimidates her ex, Rickhead. The mysterious man is her new best friend. She gives him a complimentary box of desserts.

After he’s gone, she finds a small brass key under his plate. Surely he’ll return for more chocolate and the key. But he’s murdered, and the Death by Chocolate box leads police to Lindsay.

Is his death connected to the blonde in four-inch heels who demands to talk to Lindsay about her relationship with the woman’s husband? Who is her husband? Fred? For all Lindsay knows, he could be married, could be a bigamist or even a trigamist. He is an over-achiever.

Lindsay’s life is spinning out of control with lots of questions and no answers. Is the key a clue to the murder? What does it hide that makes it important enough for someone to kill Lindsay to get it?

I grew up in a small rural town where our favorite entertainment on summer evenings was to sit outside under the stars and tell stories. When I went to bed at night, instead of a lullaby, I got a story. That could be because everybody in my family sings like a bullfrog with laryngitis, but they sure could tell stories-ghost stories, funny stories, happy stories, scary stories. For as long as I can remember I’ve been a storyteller. Thank goodness for computers so I can write down my stories. It’s hard to make listeners sit still while I tell them a whole book! Like my family’s tales, my stories are funny, scary, dramatic, romantic, paranormal and, I hope, entertaining. Besides writing, my interests are reading, eating chocolate and riding my Harley. I have two ongoing mystery series, Death by Chocolate (Death by Chocolate; Murder, Lies and Chocolate; and The Great Chocolate Scam, Chocolate Mousse Attack, Fatal Chocolate Obsession, and Deadly Chocolate Addiction) and Charley’s Ghost (The Ex Who Wouldn’t Die, The Ex Who Glowed in the Dark, The Ex Who Conned a Psychic, and The Ex Who Saw a Ghost). Death by Chocolate and The Ex Who Wouldn’t Die are USA Today Bestsellers.
