A Literary Pub Mystery #05: Through the Liquor Glass

- Blurb -

Fall is in full swing in the picturesque New England town of Shady Creek, Vermont, and Sadie Coleman, owner of the literary-themed Inkwell pub, is serving up delicious food and drinks with a side of sleuthing in the latest Literary Pub Mystery from USA Today bestselling author Sarah Fox. . . Autumn brings a wonderland of color and atmosphere to Vermont. As the last leaves fall from the trees, the town is gearing up for a new festival- A Taste of Shady Creek. Pub proprietor Sadie Coleman is looking forward to visitors coming to sample her literary-themed cocktails. She' s a little more wary about her mother' s impending first visit. What if her mom doesn' t like Sadie' s adopted town-or her new boyfriend, Grayson Blake? Those concerns are overshadowed when a food critic is found dead at Grayson' s craft brewery, pinned under a barrel. Curiouser and curiouser-the victim is linked to Grayson' s past as a private investigator, and all the evidence points to him as the killer. While Grayson lays low, Sadie starts some investigating of her own, diving down a rabbit hole of suspects. Was it a bad review that made the killer mad as a hatter? Or are there other motives at play? In between serving Kiss of the Cider Woman cocktails and book-minded bites to festival goers, Sadie is striving to clear Grayson' s name. But it' ll take more than a dash of ingenuity to prevent the festival from fizzing out completely-and stop a killer from downing another innocent life . . .
