Outer Banks Baker Mystery #2
Sage Advice to Cover Up a Murder!
The Second Book in the Outer Banks Baker Mystery Series!
Recipes Included!
Teenager Logan Jones looked forward to summers with his beloved, artisan baker, Aunt Mel in the Outer Banks of North Carolina all year long. The middle-aged widow showed him more love and support for those few months of the year than his parents did all year long.
Last summer had been extraordinary. It started out by ensnaring his aunt in a murder mystery right in her own bakery – the Kill Devil Delicacies. Once solved, Logan had enjoyed every minute that remained of his vacation; fishing, surfing, as well as hanging out with his new pretty friend, Emily Hawkins. This summer Logan yearned to spend more time fishing and with Emily, and less time solving mysteries.
As the young man woke before dawn on the first day of his summer vacation to go fishing at Oregon Inlet, he was full of optimism and joy. Too bad one thing waited for him at his favorite fishing spot – the dead body of William Hawkins, Emily’s grandfather. Another summer – another murder for Logan and his Aunt Melissa Jones Maples.

Stronger
Definitely good development from the first book. Still a little bit outside the scope of believable fiction, but its a cozy mystery so I'll run with it.

Logan Maples is back to visit his Aunt Melissa for the summer when he comes across another body when he goes fishing. Hoping this summer will not be a repeat of the previous one, he is surprised when a new detective suspects foul play and poison which may have been present in one of his Aunt's breads. The widow refuses an autopsy and rushes to cremate her husband. Police are stymied without a body and no official case to pursue. But various suspicious actions keep everyone wondering. Enjoyable cozy.

This is another great book by Ms Eggli. In this one, Melissa and her nephew Logan are again wrongly accused of murder because of circumstantial evidence. It will take some dogged determination and the involvement of Melissa's brother (Logan's dad) to help straighten out the mess, but not before an innocent party is injured by the killer's carelessness. Read it. You will love it too!

Really put off by the writing style, but recipes seemed ok. Will not be looking for more in series.

Nice setting and characters but reads like a high schooler wrote it. Has possibilities with more polish and editing.

I love how Melissa and Logan stick together through thick and thin. I also enjoy getting to know their family and friends. Can't wait to see what happens for them next summer.
