 Easy as Pie at Bobby's Diner
Fans of Susan's first novel, Bobby's Diner will enjoy Easy as Pie at Bobby's Diner. Running a diner isn't always a piece of cake. Especially when an old "friend" starts flirting with your new beau. Georgette lost her first husband to another woman, and she isn't going to stand for it this time. The two women part company; but then the estranged friend goes missing. And hints start to surface that the man they are quarreling over has a dangerous past. It's going to take courage to survive the dangers ahead. Calling on her inner reserves and reaching out to friends, Georgette will discover new strength and belonging.
Praise
"Easy As Pie is a delightful read" — Simon Barrett, bloggernews.net book review
"If the Ladies No.1 Detective Agency staff ran the Whistle Stop Cafe, the result would resemble Bobby's Diner and its sequel, Easy as Pie at Bobby's Diner. ... Comparable to Fried Green Tomatoes, the Ivy Towers Mystery series and The Potluck Catering Club series ... a perfect beach read" — Seattle P.I.
