ABOUT THE BOOK

She’s Passionate about Solving the Case ... with the Town’s Life-Long Bachelor

El Littllefield runs The Butler Did It catering. It’s the perfect cover for her to solve “who-done-its” (nothing too dangerous, please!) in this small university town nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains. While catering her most important event yet—a fancy retirement dinner for Dr. Max Haverhill, life-long bachelor and history dean—countless guests fall ill, a 200 year-old relic is stolen, and her best friend vanishes. All in the first hour.

As El and Max race to solve the mystery, they discover there’s more to their relationship than simply solving the case. Welcome to Eden’s Bridge—the perfect small town setting for big intrigue, romance, and humor.

My review:

El Littlefield hides behind a catering company to be able to solve mysteries, something she likes to do.  Dr Max Haverhill, a man who she is catering a dinner for, gets sick and before El can think about what has happened watches other guests start to get sick. While this is taking place El is looking for  her best friend. The last piece of the mystery takes  place when a relic is taken. Max and El decide to try to find out what really happened. The real question is will they find something else while working so close? I give this book a 4/5.I was give a copy from CFBA, for the purpose of a review and all opinions are my own.
