The only thing missing is the Audible version narrated by Michelle Babb. (The voice of Frannie Shoemaker.)

BBQ judging can be deadly

When Frannie and her friends go to a weekend bbq contest, her daughter comes along to discuss a big decision she needs to make. No one expects a murder to disrupt the contest. Frannie ends up grilling the suspects to solve the case. It's another fascinating camping mystery with crazy characters and lots of clues. Highly recommended.

Still enjoying Frannie Shoemaker and her friends and their camping adventures. I’m certainly glad they have campers - if they were in tents I would be terrified for them what with all the murders they have around.

Frannie Shoemaker campground mysteries are always a good read.
This one could've used a bit more proof-reading, but it was enjoyable all the same.
Not sure how the author comes up with so many different scenarios, but glad she does!

Frannie and Larry at murder camp again.

Frannie seems to find another camping trip murder. This one involves a BBQ contest, marital issues, and craziness. Very enjoyable story.

Fun read especially for camping baby boomers

Love this series. It is not only a good mystery storyline with retired travelers but also includes tasty recipes and camping tips.
