A Country Cooking School Mystery
BY PAIGE SHELTON
ABOUT THE BOOK:
At Gram’s Country Cooking School in Broken Rope, Missouri, Isabelle
“Betts” Winston and her grandmother share the secrets of delicious
home-style recipes. But there’s one secret they keep from their
classes—their ability to talk to ghosts from the town’s colorful past…
Betts
and Gram agree to help their friend Jake at Broken Rope’s Historical
Society by accommodating some foodie tourists for the night and
occupying them with cooking lessons. It couldn’t be worse timing when
the pair encounter the ax-wielding ghost of Sally Swarthmore, one of
Broken Rope’s legendary murderers, who pleads with Betts to help find
her diary--a diary that could prove that Sally was really a victim, not a
villain.
But they soon have a modern-day murder
on their hands when one of the tourists turns up dead with a noose
around his neck and two other tourists are nowhere to be found. Now
Betts needs to put the cooking classes on the back burner to untangle
two knotty mysteries and rope in a cold-blooded killer.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
As a kid, Paige moved around a bunch, but went to both high school and
college in Des Moines, Iowa. After college, she spent many years working in advertising, mostly for
the local Salt Lake City newspapers. Her attempts to become a
published writer began in 1997, but it wasn’t until 2008 that the first
contracts with her agent and Berkley Prime Crime were signed.
Paige Shelton spent lots of years in advertising but now writes novels full time. She lives in Salt Lake City, Utah, with her husband and son. When she’s up early enough, one of her favorite things is to watch the sun rise over the Wasatch Mountains.

They are certainly busy...cooking school by day, ghosts and a murder by night. I'd love to see how they solve all of these problems.

"their ability to talk to ghosts from the town’s colorful past"-- that is what attracted me to the book!
