Synopsis: A &“fast-paced&” mystery with &“a plot that involves two rival chocolatiers, a wealthy elderly couple from Connecticut, and plenty of local gossip&” (Publishers Weekly). No one in their right mind would vacation in Maine this time of year, but to boost the economy, the town of Tinker&’s Cove is launching a travel promotion for Valentine's Day. As a reporter for the Pennysaver, Lucy Stone is assigned a puff piece on upscale Chanticleer&’s Chocolates, and its deliciously handsome owner, Trey Meacham. Not the best way to keep her widening waistline under control. Soon Lucy discovers there&’s another tantalizing tart behind the counter. Sultry store manager Tamzin Graves is only too eager to serve her male customers. With a throng of jealous women in her wake, it&’s almost no surprise when Tamzin turns up dead, her body covered in chocolate. There's no sugar-coating murder, and Lucy must crisscross the snow-covered landscape as she tries to find a heartless killer… &“I like Lucy Stone a lot, and so will readers.&”—Carolyn Hart, New York Times-bestselling author of the Death on Demand Mysteries &“An enjoyable story.&”—RT Book Reviews
