Reading - The Chocolate Jewel Case

The Chocolate Jewel Case by Joanna Carl
 
 
 
 
 
Lee and Joe are newlyweds, in her rare free time, Lee works on TenHuis Chocolade's newest offerings, chocolate jewels.
 
When the houseguests from hell arrive : Lee's boy-crazy stepsister, a salesgirl from the shop, an aunt resuperating from her last divorce, a bird-watching night owl, and an unemployed ex-con.  That's seven people with one bathroom - before the arrival of the man claiming to be Joe's father, who has been presumed dead for thirty years.
 
But soon the town of Warner Pier has its very own jewel heist, and then a body is found in the lake. Lee can't help but wonder if the crimes are related. Maybe if she digs up some dirt, she'll hit the mother lode.
