Diners, Dives, & Drive-Bys (Reality Show Cozy Mystery Series Book 1)
★★★★★ “A wonderful tale that has both funny moments and heartfelt ones. The dialogue sparkled, and the pacing never dragged… The mystery was crafted so well that it kept me guessing.” — Demetria Head for Readers’ Favorite
In the quaint town of Walnut Falls, Ohio, excitement bubbles as two celebrity chefs arrive to compete in a culinary battle reality show. But when shots ring out in a shocking drive-by, the competition takes a violent turn. Chef Remmsey is the victim of the attack, and Chef Finetti is swiftly handcuffed and charged. The town reels, but local sleuth Holly Harkins suspects a more complex recipe for murder. She’s convinced that the arrested chef is just a scapegoat, and someone else is stirring the pot.
Determined to uncover the truth, Holly sifts through the underbelly of the show’s glittering facade. With a dash of intuition and a sprinkle of persistence, she follows a trail of clues that promises to reveal the real villain. As the cameras roll on, the stakes rise, and Holly must race against time to serve justice before the final curtain call. In this first installment in the Reality Show Cozy Mysteries, the small screen hides big secrets, and the truth is a dish best served cold.

I tried this book on a whim since reality TV really isn’t my thing. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The characters were so quirky and relatable. It was a great afternoon read.

Not a bad read on the whole. The names and discriptions of the competitive chefs was distracting. They were too close to real life chefs and it took away from the story.
