The Wildwood Cove Museum is finally reopening in their newly inherited space. As items come in for the museum, someone has left letters written by a local outlaw more than 100 years ago. The letters are eye opening and seem to be deadly even a century later as a volunteer and other are endangered and even murdered. 

Marley has to figured out who is trying to hide the Jack of Diamonds’ letters and why are they willing to kill to keep them from being read. If she doesn’t figure it out soon, more people could die to keep the letters from seeing the light of day, maybe even Marley.

I love this location on the West coast and can smell the salt air whenever I read one of the books in this series. The characters are well developed and their lives progress in each new book along with the solid whodunit. Don’t forget to check out the recipes too…Marley always shares her customer favorites!

When Marley volunteers for an event at a local museum she and another volunteer come across a box of donations containing letters from a notorious robber who was killed over a 100 years ago, containing some juicy family secrets. When the volunteers is found murdered, her employee Tommy is run down and left for dead in a ditch and the letters are missing Marley can't help but start investigating. There are a lot of people who could be guilty- from a shady handyman to another employee who was passed up for promotion to a wealthy confections company owner. Will Marley find the murderer and figure out why the letters were stolen before the murderer finds her?

Another good cozy. I am becoming a huge fan of the cozy mystery genre due to books like this. You can read this as an escape from the everyday in a weekend. A really good mystery.

Murder is on the menu in the latest Pancake House Mystery, as a treasure trove of old letters spurs a killer to take some unsavory action. . . .
I enjoyed this one as much as the rest. The characters are fun and it had a good mystery.

Marley owns the Flip Side pancake house in Wildwood Cove, a small seaside town where nearly everything is in easy walking distance and her newish husband, Brett, has his own outdoor business. Everyone in town is readying for the upcoming Wild West Days, especially the Wildwood Cove Museum with its grand reopening since moving into an inherited Painted Lady. A lot of donated ephemera is being checked out, including some historical letters from a local notorious pirate. Those letters seem to be lethal to a prominent volunteer as she is the victim of blunt force trauma while in her office in the museum. There's no lack of suspects and unpleasant characters!
Law enforcement is good despite being small, but Marley has a need to help, especially after some threatening incidents. No lack of misdirection, red herrings, and disquieting characters. Good sleuthing!
I requested and received a free temporary ebook copy from Kensington Books via NetGalley. Thanks!
