Murder Gone A-Rye
Nancy J. Parra
Series: A Toni Ryder, Baker's Treat Mystery
Toni Holmes is the best gluten-free baker in Oiltop, Kansas — okay, she's the only one — but when her grandmother becomes a murder suspect, she's more concerned with keeping Grandma free …
When Toni's beloved — and eccentric — grandma Ruth is arrested for the murder of her archenemy, Lois Striker, it's time for a senior moment of truth. Telltale tracks from a scooter like the one Grandma Ruth rides lead the police to suspect the outspoken oldster, but Toni knows her grandmother wouldn't burn a cookie, let alone extinguish a life.
In fact, the case has Grandma more revved up than her infamous scooter. A former investigative journalist, she decides to solve the murder herself — with help from Toni — by digging up long-buried town secrets. But as Grandma scoots in where others fear to tread, Toni needs to make sure she not only stays out of jail but out of harm's way …
