About this ebook

First in the new Maple Syrup cozy mystery series from USA Today bestselling author Catherine Bruns.

There's nothing sweet about murder...

Leila Khoury has always believed that everyone loved her father as much as they loved his artisanal maple syrup. But when he's killed, and she returns to Sugar Ridge, Vermont to take over his business, she starts to realize how much of his life she's left untapped.

With her brother under suspicion, her mother just barely holding it together, and police not producing any leads, Leila will have to investigate herself if she wants answers about her father's sticky end. But the more she learns, the more she worries that there won't be a sappy ending to the story.

A cozy mystery perfect for fans of Joanne Fluke, this edition includes 5 delicious maple recipes for mystery readers with a sweet tooth!

I already love this new series from Catherine Bruns! In the well written book, A Doomful of Sugar, Ms. Bruns deftly weaves together maple syrup recipes, family dynamics and an engaging plot. I did not get much else done, once I started reading. Leila is just as stubborn as her father and is determined to solve his murder - especially once her brother is arrested for the crime. I am eagerly awaiting the next book. I highly recommend this intriguing tale to anyone looking for a good cozy mystery.
