To enjoy her books, you have to accept that this isn't a cozy mystery. Rather, it's a cozy thriller. And since it's still a cozy, you have to suspend disbelief. It's akin to watching something like Dukes of Hazzard. It's not high drama or even high comedy but if you accept it as such, you'll just relax, take a backseat and go along for the ride.
That said, there's one thing that bothers me. Spoiler alert.

This 6th book in the Death by Chocolate series is another solid installment. I like the characters in all six of the books, Jake and Ellie, the co-owners of The Chocolate Moose in Eastport, Maine, and their families and friends are terrific characters.
However, in this book, the plot seemed to be unnecessarily convoluted, though not so much so to stop me from continuing with the series.
I enjoy this series and would recommend it to cozy fans.

She used to work for the mob but now she works in the family bakery and lives with her husband, parents, kids, grands, and dogs in an elderly house that is very much straining at the seams. An island neighbor needs help to find a missing husband who might be lost at sea, so Jake (Jacobia) and Ellie
begin an investigation that leads to missing treasure, shark attack, border problems, and even worse!
It kept my nose to the page (figuratively) right to the twisty end!
I requested and received a free temporary EARC from Kensington Books, Kensington Cozies via NetGalley. Thank you!
