Brenda Whiteside and Candy, Cigarettes, and Murder (A Chocolate Martini Sisters Mystery Book 1)
About the Book: Recently widowed, Emma Banefield looks forward to a getaway birthday weekend with her free-wheeling sister, Nicole Earp, sipping chocolate martinis at the peaceful, historic Dulce Inn. When a rude stranger, a nasty food critic, and a madhouse of temperamental artists greet them, all hope for a tranquil weekend evaporates faster than dew on a hot desert morning.
Overlooking the riotous atmosphere is doubly hard after Em discovers the body of a hotel guest, and a second murder affects Nic personally. Now, entrenched in a caper that pits them against a surly detective, they cozy up to a hotel staff hiding dangerous secrets to uncover clues to the killer.
Using their smarts and love of all things mystery, will the Chocolate Martini Sisters solve the crime ahead of the obstinate Chief Detective or find themselves trapped in the middle of a third murder?
About the Beverage: Brenda recommends pairing her novel with a Chocolate Martini because “Candy, Cigarettes, and Murder is book one of the delightful Chocolate Martini Sisters cozy mystery series. Twice a year, Emma and Nicole spend a relaxing weekend at the storied Dulce Inn in Wyatt, Arizona celebrating their birthdays with a chocolate martini. But there is always more than martinis on the menu for the sisters. Mayhem dwells while murder lurks, giving the amateur sleuths plenty of opportunities to use their knowledge of all things mystery to solve the crime.”
About the Author: Brenda Whiteside is the award-winning author of romantic suspense, cozy mystery, and romance. After living in six states and two countries—so far—she and her husband have settled in Central Arizona. They admit to being gypsies at heart, so they won't discount the possibility of another move. They share their home with a rescue dog named Amigo. While FDW fishes, Brenda writes.
Brenda says, “If you're familiar with small town, Arizona, you might recognize a resemblance between Wyatt, where the sisters do their sleuthing, and Prescott, a beautiful little city with a western flare. Candy, Cigarettes, and Murder is available on Amazon and is also Kindle Unlimited for $3.99.”
