“Memorable characters, a charming locale, and a satisfying mystery.”
—Barbara Allan
When a film crew comes to Mackinac Island, the last thing fudge shop owner Allie McMurphy expects to find is a murder victim . . .
SHOT ON LOCATION
It's Labor Day weekend, the official end of tourist season, and the beginning of a whole batch of trouble. First, the island is invaded by a TV crew filming a murder mystery pilot, and handsome Hollywood heartthrob Dirk Benjamin needs Allie’s help to prep for his role as local cop Rex Manning. Then, Allie’s bichonpoo Mal sniffs out a real murder in the alley behind the Historic McMurphy Hotel and Fudge Shop, a man shot in the head—with a note challenging amateur sleuth Allie to catch the culprit. Like it or not, the fudge maker has to square off against a crazy killer—but this time she may have bitten off more than she can chew . . .

—The Oakland Tribune
“The characters are fun and well-developed, the setting is quaint and beautiful.”
—RT Book Reviews

“3.5 stars
Yet again, things I liked and things I didn't like. If the mediocrity continues I want to abandon this series but i LOVE the location: Mackinac Island.
I loved some of the troupes in this story but I wish they would've been utilized better - a killer recapping past mysteries, movie shoot.
One thing that drove me nuts was the insistence that "Jenas" is a "common" last name. I had to Google it because it was making me crazy. I've never heard that name. Ancestry.com assured me there were only 329 results”

“<strong>Unique and different </strong>
4.25 stars
This mystery was very different and interesting. I liked that there were elements of chess played in with the clues. The notes Allie kept getting kept me on the edge of my seat with said clues. There was the interesting dynamic with the film crew shooting there. Overall it was a good mystery.
I was over the whole romantic drama though. The back and forth between Trent and Rex. It just got to be tedious and repetitive. I wasn’t enjoying that part of the story.”
