Sandy has been running a shop called Books and Bakes, combining her love for books with her love of baking. She's been struggling and has had to give her part-timers fewer hours. One night, out of the blue, Reginald Halfman enters Sandy's bookstore and announces to everyone that he will open a bookstore across the street from Sandy's. She is horrified because Reginald has lots of money, which means he will take over the space across the street from her best friend, who currently has a nail salon.

The following day, everyone is shocked to learn that Reginald has been poisoned in his home. The local police have been sidelined, and the case has been given to the police of the next larger town. They immediately assume Sandy is the killer. She realizes she is the only one who cares enough to worry about getting the correct culprit.

This story was OK, just nothing special. I don't intend to read any others in this series because there wasn't enough to make me look forward to the next one. Score = G+.
