Overview

Apparently, the mouthwatering new ice cream flavors on the menu in coastal Bar Harbor, Maine, are really just to die for . . .



Food and cocktails columnist Hayley Powell doesn't know what to believe when Lydia Partridge, the put-together owner of gourmet Bar Harbor Ice Cream, suddenly reveals fears that her husband may be having an affair. There's no other way to explain why Jamie, a respected professor, was spotted in a remote part of town with a much younger woman. But instead of learning the truth about the secret meeting, Lydia opens her freezer truck to find another surprise-the dead body of a summer employee . . .



The shock continues as photographic evidence proves Jamie was spending time off campus with the victim, one of his students. Now, Lydia desperately needs Hayley to discover if Jamie really is a cheater-and, worse, a ruthless killer. With her own complicated family issues to address, can Hayley make sense of a popular college girl's love life and out the true culprit before the case, or another person, goes cold?

Sweet treats turn deadly when Hayley Powell investigates murder in an ice cream shop.

When Hayley craves some Sea Salt Caramel from Bar Harbor Ice Cream, owner Lynette Partridge obliges with a delivery to Hayley’s Kitchen. Lynette complains about coping with the motley crew of college kids working for her, but Haley forgets about her friend’s problems when her son, Dustin, arrives from California with MacKenzie, his very pregnant girlfriend. As if that weren’t enough, Hayley has to referee between her two best friends, Liddy and Mona, who square off when they realize they’ve both been dating the same man, and soothe Lynette, who thinks her husband’s cheating on her. All this drama is suddenly eclipsed by Lynette’s next delivery to Hayley, which includes the corpse of Miranda Fox, one of her scoopers, in the back of the ice cream truck. There are plenty of obvious suspects. Miranda was being stalked by Mona’s son, Chet, and she and some fellow scoopers were living it up in a rental along with a handsome local boy who’s dating the daughter of a famous wealthy couple. But Lynette can’t help fearing that Miranda was the object of her husband’s affections. Hayley, who’s been involved with many a murder, learns that Miranda was killed with a rare poison hidden in the odd ice cream flavor she preferred. Chet admits his infatuation but fingers Dustin’s old high school bud Spanky McFarland as someone else involved with Miranda, pushing Hayley to investigate further.

Plenty of suspects interspersed with ice cream recipes beloved of the foodie sleuth.
