Description
Alberta Scaglione thinks her cooking is better than anyone's in Tranquility, New Jersey--but she doesn't mind an occasional visit to Veronica's Diner. During the breakfast rush, waitress Teri Jo seems stressed out. Not surprising on a busy morning, though Alberta, her sister Helen, and her granddaughter Jinx find it odd when Teri Jo asks them to deliver a package for her "just in case."
Minutes later, Teri Jo rushes back to their table--not with a check in her hand but with a knife in her back. Veronica is upset but says she knows virtually nothing about her employee's past, and the ladies aren't sure whether to view her with sympathy or suspicion. Then they find an unusual figurine on the ground while snooping in the vicinity, and it becomes clear that this is a case for the Ferrara Family. With such a crowd at the crime scene, there are plenty of potential murderers on the menu, and the Ferraras will travel everywhere to figure out exactly where that figurine fits in...

Jonesing for Eggs Benedict, Alberta, Helen, Joyce and Jinx head to the local diner for a fix. As they try to attack their waitress’ attention for their check, the woman falls down on the diner floor with a butcher’s knife in her back. In a full diner, not a single person saw the murderer and that leads the Ferrara ladies to get their detective hats on and try to solve the mystery.
With some home cooked food, plenty of Entenmann’s and a few pitchers of a Jinx’s new Red Herring beverage, the ladies get down to doing what they do best, sleuthing. As the body count increases, the ladies are hoping they won’t be adding themselves to that count and hit the road to track down the clues and serve up a murderer.
I adore this series. A mix of two generations and lots of love make this a fun series with solid whodunits each and every time. You’ll find yourself laughing out loud at times and dating yourself at others, like when Vinny calls the ladies the Senior Scooby Gang. Having grown up in New Jersey, each and every entry in this series is like a visit home. Family really is everything!
