I love the concept of farm to table and this series captures all of it in one great series.
Annie is a great character and she plays an excellent role in this story.

One Potato, Two Potato, Dead is the third book in Lynn Cahoon’s Farm-to-Fork Mystery Series. The well-developed characters are fun and amiable, and the story flows smoothly at a steady pace. The story has a nice mix of intriguing mystery, investigating, daily life, friendship, and family. The mystery is interesting and kept me guessing until the end.

When Angie Turner’s grandmother, Margaret, passed, Angie inherited her farmhouse in River Vista, Idaho and adopted Dom, a St. Bernard. Angie and her best friend, Felicia Williams, opened The County Seat, a farm-to-table restaurant. Angie is the head chef and in charge of the kitchen staff and Felicia, who lives in the apartment above the restaurant, is in charge of the front of the restaurant, the servers, and bar. They have a great staff that feels like family and the restaurant is doing well. Angie’s dating Ian McNeal, the owner/manager of the River Vista Farmers’ Market and an organizer and activist for the community. Angie, Ian, and her staff volunteered to cook and serve a meal at a homeless shelter in Boise run by Felicity’s new boyfriend, Taylor Simpson. They’re introduced to Daniel Monet, a visiting culinary professor from Canada. Ian, who never discusses his past, recognizes Daniel as a childhood friend, Arnie Manner, from England, but Daniel says Ian is mistaken. Angie is quite miffed when Ian suddenly leaves for England without any explanation. After Professor Monet is found murdered in his apartment, Hope Anderson, Angie’s part-time dishwasher/chef-in-training, who had given him a ride home from the shelter, is questioned as a possible suspect, Estebe Blackstone, the sous chef, asks his cousin to represent her, and Angie applies her detective skills to solve the case. Angie, who often places herself in dangerous situations without realizing it, learns that Daniel hadn’t been well liked by his peers, is a player, and seems to have been a ghost prior to his arrival in Boise. Sheriff Allen Brown, Ian’s uncle, isn’t happy when Angie starts asking questions in her attempt to identify the murderer and clear Hope’s name.

I received an Advance Reader Copy of this book from NetGalley and voluntarily reviewed it.

I really enjoy this series. Angie and Felicia are strong independent women running a restaurant in Idaho, outside of Boise, called the County Seat.

When I saw this book on Netgalley, I knew I needed to read this based on the description and author. It didn’t hurt that the cover is adorable.

The characters are well-developed and strong but believable, relatable, and not overbearing. I liked that the story had a lot of angles in it. We learn a little about running a mission- a lot of work. We learn a little more about the people of the town. I enjoyed disliking the professor’s wife and Taylor. Taylor was a jerk! She hit the right notes of discord from the very beginning.

Thank-you Ms Cahoon and the Kensington staff for offering this book. This may be read as a standalone book.

Thanks to the author, Netgalley and Kensington Books – Lyrical Underground for the opportunity to read and review this book. These are my own opinions.

I enjoyed this book mostly. It a typical cozy mystery, well-paced, although there were parts that dragged or didn't really push the story along. I would recommend it. #OnePotatoTwoPotatoDead #NetGalley

The County Seat is Angie and her BFF, Felicity's farm to table restaurant. In the town of River Vista, Idaho. Using locally sourced ingredients their twists on recipes will have you wishing you were there.

Angie and boyfriend, Ian, have agreed to help cook and serve at a local mission, along with Hope, her chef-in-training they are giving the homeless a good home cooked meal. This is where Angie meets Daniel Monet. Daniel is also one of Hope's professors and in a weird twist he is also someone Ian knew from England only not by the name is using now. 

But when he turns up dead, by poisoning from a wine glass with Hope's prints on it, Angie will go into overdrive to find out just who this phony really is and who really killed him.

This is turning into one of my favorites. I read all of her other cozy series and the things I love about this one are the characters. They are so well done that I wouldn't be surprised to meet up with them if I dropped in to town. And of course we can't forget the food. I would happily be a taste tester for Angie! I've already tried the recipe at the end and it was delicious.

Very Well Done!

A solid cozy series that really delivers.
This author’s work is a sure fire treat.

Fall is descending on River Vista, Idaho and the team at the County Line restaurant is working on their upcoming menu changes to reflect the local harvest availability. Angie, her business partner and BFF Felicia and their restaurant family are seeing the hard work pay off as the business grows.

As a means to give back, the team volunteers to cook dinner at a local men’s shelter run by Felicia’s boyfriend. College intern, Hope, is surprised when her hot professor joins them for the evening. Turns how the professor may not be who he says he is when Angie’s boyfriend, Ian, recognizes him and calls him by an entirely different name.

In the morning the visiting professor is found murdered and Hope is on the suspect list after joining the professor at is home after dropping him off. But Angie and the team know that Hope would never hurt anyone and end up not only trying to clear her name, but having to protect her.

I love this series and the characters. The restaurant theme is delicious and I enjoy how the author brings Angie’s creativity to life on the pages as she plans menus, tweaks recipes, and solves murders. Lynn Cahoon is one my must read authors and I enjoy all of her series! If you haven’t read any books by this author, what are you waiting for? You won’t regret any of her books!
