About the book
Reporting for the Pennysaver, Lucy was given the task of writing a fluffy piece about Chanticleer's Chocolates, an upscale chocolate shop. However, when a local fisherman dies under suspicious circumstances, Lucy believes her investigative skills could be better utilized elsewhere. The community is stunned when Fern's Famous Fudge loses its title as 'Best Candy on the Coast' to the expensive new treats at Chanticleer's. Lucy soon uncovers that the seductive store manager, Tamzin Graves, is catering to a predominantly male clientele. As jealousy swirls among the women in town, the discovery of Tamzin's body covered in chocolate comes as almost no surprise. Could a vengeful ex-wife be responsible for these crimes? As Lucy gets closer to unmasking the killer, she may find herself trapped by a dangerous and unpredictable murderer...
