Cover Reveal ~ Strangled Eggs and Ham by Maddie Day

Nov 25, 2018 | Cover Reveal

I am thrilled to be hosting the cover reveal for the sixth book in the “Country Store” mystery series from Kensington, coming June 25, 2019.


Title: Strangled Eggs and Ham
Genre: Cozy Mystery
Author Website: edithmaxwell.com

Book Synopsis
Robbie Jordan’s rustic country store is growing in popularity. But when a dead body appears, it turns out that Robbie’s home-style cooking attracts hungry customers—and murder!

While Robbie scrambles through breakfast orders for her expanding clientele at Pans ‘N Pancakes, tempers run as high as the sticky August heat in South Lick, Indiana. Real-estate developer Fiona Closs plans to build a towering luxury resort at one of the most scenic hilltops in Brown County, and not everyone can see the sunny side of the imposing proposition—including Robbie’s furious Aunt Adele, who doesn’t waste a minute concocting protests and road blockades. When tensions boil over and a vocal protester is silenced forever at the resort site, Robbie ditches the griddle to catch the killer. But if slashed tires are any indication, she’ll need to crack this case before her own aunt gets served something deadly next . . .

    Adorable cover! Love all the details from the checkers that the cat scattered when he decided to get all comfy on the board, the great country breakfast sit out both on the porch and where your eye is drawn to off the porch onto the picnic table, to the revolver laying precariously on the porch railing. Can’t wait for the opportunity to read this wonderful book by an amazing author whose books I can’t get enough of!

    It’s sooooo long to wait. Love the “Robbie” connection, if I’m not mistaken.

    I really mean this, I can hardly wait.
