This Murder is Nacho Business

by D.C. Owens

5.0

ARC Details

Nachos, pie, murder, oh my!

Losing her engineering job in the 1983 oil bust? Rough. Moving back to her Texas Hill Country hometown to help out at the family café? Unexpected. Getting tangled up in a murder investigation involving nachos, pickles, and nosy Main Street neighbors? Definitely not on Josie Barbosa’s to-do list.

Back in quirky Andorra Springs, Josie’s helping out at her family’s café, testing pie recipes and supporting her dad’s latest culinary brainstorm: ready-to-serve nachos. But when a fellow Main Street business owner turns up dead—just hours after a heated public spat with her dad—suddenly the local gossip is spicier than a jalapeño biscuit.

Armed with her analytical brain, a healthy dose of sarcasm, and her best friend Liz—a tougher-than-nails rancher with a flair for the dramatic—Josie sets out to clear her dad’s name. But between secretive shopkeepers, a charming wine bar owner, a suspiciously serene garden guru, and the big time BBQ family down the street, this sleepy little town is looking more and more like a murder buffet.

Full of quirky characters, ‘80s retro charm, and cheesy puns (some literally), This Murder is Nacho Business is a cozy mystery with a crunchy exterior and a gooey mystery center. Perfect for anyone who believes justice is best served spicy.
