Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
A young chef bites off more than she can chew when she returns to her Alaskan hometown to take over her parents’ diner.
When Chef Charlotte “Charlie” Cooke was offered the chance to leave San Francisco and return home to Elkview, Alaska, and take over her mother’s diner, she didn’t even consider saying no. For the past year, she’s built a comfortable existence, spending her days making sure the restaurant runs smoothly and that her cat, Eggs Benedict, is appropriately pampered. But soon life at the diner starts feeling a little one-note.
Determined to bring fresh life and flavors to the Bear Claw Diner, Charlie starts planning changes to the menu, which has grown stale over the years. But her plans are fried when her head chef, Oliver turns up dead after a bitter and public fight over Charlie’s ideas—leaving Charlie as the prime suspect.
With her career, freedom, and life all on thin ice, Charlie must find out who the real killer is, before it’s too late.

“I loved the setting since there aren’t many books in Alaska, but the FMC annoyed me at times. She comes off as very immature and does things reminiscent of a teenager rather than a grown woman. I will continue the series since it’s only 3 books and I’m hoping the FMC grows.”

“It was very descriptive for sure. Learned more about Alaska then I thought I’d ever learn. The ending was great…deputizing the cat so great! I did like that it had some recipes at the end too.”Denise Stewart
