Hot Wings and Homicide

Description

Beth and her twin, Seth, are taking Kluckin’ Good to the next level when they get an ideal location for their food truck at the Flavors of the Bay Food Festival. The last thing she expected – or wanted – was for her no-good ex-boyfriend, Brad, to show up and cause a scene. But she prides herself on how she handled it until she stumbles upon his body. Now the twins’ heads are on a chopping block. As Beth digs into Brad’s past, she uncovers some unsavory details that could put her in the crosshairs of the killer.

Dutra’s writing is playful and charming, with clever banter that makes for a fast-paced story. The delightfully quirky situations will keep you laughing, whether it’s her twin dressed as a cow or her ex leaving her for his step-cousin. These make the mystery feel original and prove that Dutra knows how to make the chicken-themed humor fun. She puts her own unique spin on a mystery that feels like something new to the genre. The inclusion of Terikyi, an adorable chicken, takes the cozy vibes up a notch with a poultry sidekick that will make anyone envious. Hot Wings and Homicide is a brilliant follow-up to a smashing debut, with more humor, charm, and one adorable chicken.
