A Cookie Cutter Shop Mystery
BY VIRGINIA LOWELL
ABOUT THE BOOK:
As the national bestselling Cookie Cutter Shop mysteries return, things are heating up for Olivia Greyson, her best friend, Maddie, and the rest of the crew at The Gingerbread House—until a cold case puts their plans on ice…
Olivia’s mom, Ellie, is always cooking up new schemes, but her latest idea has Livie and Maddie especially excited. Ellie’s converting an old boarding house into an arts and crafts school—one that, of course, houses a kitchen for those interested in baking. But right as renovations start, the workers discover a pile of bones buried within the boarding house’s walls, evidence of a long forgotten crime.
A silver necklace with a cookie cutter charm is found within the remains, convincing one of the workers that the bones are the remains of her father, who’s been missing for over five years. Of course, Livie and Maddie can’t resist the allure of investigating. But they’re about to discover that digging up the secrets of the past can be deadly dangerous…

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Hi! I'm Virginia Lowell, and Cookie Dough or Die was the first book in my Cookie Cutter Shop series. I had a great time writing the story. I mean, decorated cookies and murder, what could be more fun?
I grew up surrounded by shelves of mysteries, which my mother collected. She loved those wonderful British cozies with quirky characters, a light touch of humor, and gallons of tea. I do, too. Cookie cutters have always fascinated me, as well. They seem to have personalities of their own, and sometimes they tell a tale.
Virginia Lowell's first book in The Cookie Cutter Shop Mystery Series was COOKIE DOUGH OR DIE. To read more about Virginia Lowell and her fascination with cookie cutters, visit her website HERE.

I love that cute little dog on the cover. I don't think I'd like to find a body during renovations. (my house isn't old enough to find anyone in). I'd love to read about one though.
