Not another murder associated with the Maine diner we’ve all grown to love! Hazel, grab your flapjacks and help us find the killer of the lumberjack!
Winter in Seaview, Maine should be cozy—snow falling, flapjacks flipping, and locals gathered at The Lighthouse Diner. But when the town hosts the first-ever Paul Bunyan Winter Games, the sleepy diner becomes ground zero for another shocking crime.
Hazel, a still-reluctant sleuth, is enjoying the festivities until a burly lumberjack competitor keels over—face-first in a plate of syrupy pancakes. With the help of her trusty friends, Gus and Millie, it’s time to find another killer!
From axe-throwing rivalries to romantic entanglements, jealous chefs to festival politics, everyone at the Winter Games has something to hide. And someone was willing to kill to keep their secrets buried in the snow.
Packed with small-town charm, humor, and flapjacks stacked high, Flapjacks & Dead Lumberjacksis a warm and witty cozy mystery that proves murder in Seaview always comes with a side of syrup.
These books are a great read, good characters, twisty mysteries that keep you guessing, and a wonderful setting. But, there is one things that I find disturbing. It seems as though the names of some of the characters change, sometimes from paragraph to paragraph! I thought it was me, and I kept going back and forth between the chapters to see if I had lost my mind! I am fairly certain that my mind is ok. Also, it seems as though plot lines that were established in the earlier books changed going forward. And not in the way you would expect. When it happened in the first book, I thought that it must be part of the mystery, but now that I've read three books in this series, it doesn't seem intentional. I wonder if it is a problem with formatting the book into an ebook. Unfortunately, I am not sure whether I will continue with this series. If it's a formatting issue, I hope that it can be corrected, as Kelli Fudge writes enjoyable books!
