Inherit the Word

Jenna Hart moved back to Crystal Cove, California, to recapture her joie de vivre and to help her aunt Vera

run the local culinary bookshop and cafe.But it's hard to follow a simple recipe for relaxation when murder gets

competition, and Jenna has to douse the flames before the wrong person gets burned...
