Books like Pepperoni Pizza Can Be Murder

Eleanor is a young widow who runs a pizzeria in Timber Ridge, NC with the help of her sister, Maddy. Eleanor’s deliveryman, Greg, is in a heated battle with his brother Wade over their grandparent’s estate. Wade is found bludgeoned to death in the pizzeria not long after Eleanor was robbed at gunpoint there. Was Wade the robber and he came back for more and was caught and accidentally killed? Did Greg murder his brother for the inheritance? Did a jealous girlfriend do the heinous deed? The lists of suspects and motives grow but the local police don’t seem interested in looking at anyone but Greg, so Eleanor and Maddy decide to get to the bottom of it before danger knocks back on the pizza shop’s door. I enjoy A Pizza Lovers Mystery series. It’s light reading. I find it to be one of the most relaxing and engaging cozies out there. The writing flows, the characters are likable and well-fleshed out and the mystery slowly builds until the final reveal. I found a few typos in Pepperoni Pizza Can be Murder, but it didn’t detract from my reading enjoyment.
