The food truck craze has reached the charming coastal town of South Cove, California, but before Jill Gardner—owner of Coffee, Books, and More—can sample the eats, she has to shift gears and put the brakes on a killer . . .

Now that Kacey Austin has got her new gluten-free dessert truck up and running, there’s no curbing her enthusiasm—not even when someone vandalizes the vehicle and steals her recipes. But when Kacey turns up dead on the beach and Jill’s best friend Sadie becomes the prime suspect, Jill needs to step on it to serve the real killer some just desserts.

 

My Review

I received a free copy of the ebook for an honest review.

Murder on Wheels is a fun mystery, which I always enjoy. This is the first Tourist Trap Mystery that I’ve read but Lynn Cahoon does a great job of describing South Cove and all of its townspeople. This is definitely a stand alone book, but I hope to have time to go back and read the rest of the series. 

Jill Gardner seems to always end up in the middle of a mystery…or at least she puts herself in the middle. She has a good relationship with her detective boyfriend but he, understandably, gets a little annoyed when she starts snooping. She promises that she won’t snoop when Kacey Austin is found dead on the beach, but they both know that she just can’t help herself.

I recommend Murder on Wheels for anyone who enjoys a quick, fun read. Although predictable, it was still definitely worth my time.
