Description
Nursing a broken heart, Robbie Jordan is trading in her life on the West Coast for the rolling hills of southern Indiana. After paying a visit to her Aunt Adele, she fell in love with the tiny town of South Lick. And when she spots a For Sale sign on a rundown country store, she decides to snap it up and put her skills as a cook and a carpenter to use. Everyone in town shows up for the grand re-opening of Pans ‘n Pancakes, but when the mayor's disagreeable assistant is found dead, Robbie realizes that not all press is good press. With all eyes on her, she'll have to summon her puzzle-solving skills to clear her name, unscramble the town's darkest secrets, and track down a cold-blooded killer--before she's the next to die...

Flipped for Murder is the first book in the Country Store Mysteries series by Maddie Day. This cozy mystery is set in Indiana and focuses on newcomer Robbie Jordan. Robbie has opened a country store/restaurant. Things are off to a great start until the mayor's much disliked assistant turns up dead.
I enjoyed the storyline as well as the characters. It was an interesting portrayal of life in a smaller town. As far as cozy mysteries go, this could be the start of a favorite new series. The story had enough twists and turns to keep things interesting but not so many that it left my head spinning.
If you are a fan of cozy mysteries, I recommend you give this book a try. Flipped for Murder will be released on October 27, 2015. I am already looking forward to the next book in the series!
Elizabeth A, Reviewer
This is a murder mystery set in Indiana. The mystery covers two generations in a small local community. Robbie opens a breakfast/diner and in doing so introduces us to some of the inhabitants of the small town. However there is a murder of one of her first diners on the same day she has opened her new store. Robbie tries to work out who might have done it as she is implicated. The book is not violent and easy to read, if like me you can be easily scared or put off. The puzzle continues with some twists and turns, some humour and some delightful recipes. I didn’t work out who had committed the crime until the end so it kept me hooked in.
Reviewer 288279
I enjoyed the murder mystery that kept me salivating for cheesy biscuits. It wasn't a simple here is the suspect and lets unfold why, there were many characters involved that could have been the culprit with their own hidden secrets.
