The island village of Eastport, Maine, is full of delights—including the delicious treats sold at The Chocolate Moose, the waterfront bakery run by Jacobia "Jake" Tiptree and Ellie White. But a new bakery in town is proving that you can have too much of a good thing... Summer in Eastport means lobsters and blueberries, though tourists and locals alike always leave a little room for baked goods from The Chocolate Moose. This year's arts festival, featuring food, games, and rollicking local musicians, means even more sweet-toothed customers. But it's also bringing competition from a new rival, Choco's, that's trying to slice into the action. Choco's owner, Brad Fairway, is pulling sneaky stunts to divert Moose patrons to his own shop, and Ellie finally confronts him about his tactics. But when Brad is found dead next day—and the weapon is a gun that belongs to Ellie—it's only a matter of time before she is charged with the crime. Sifting through the victim's connections, Jake and Ellie sense they're getting close to the real culprit—a little too close. Can they serve up the solution before the killer dishes up another helping of murder?

      In Graves’s delightful sixth Death by Chocolate mystery (after 2022’s Death by Chocolate Chip Cupcake), candy store owner Brad Fairway’s unsavory business tactics leave a bitter taste in the mouths of chocolatiers Jacobia “Jake” Tiptree and Ellie White. Brad’s new shop is competing with Jake and Ellie’s longtime local favorite for summer tourist dollars in the small village of Eastport, Maine, with Brad undercutting Jake and Ellie’s prices and bad-mouthing their baked goods at the annual art fair. To complicate matters, Brad knows about Jake’s past laundering money for the New York mob, which she’d prefer to keep under wraps. When Brad is found dead after a confrontation with Ellie, and the murder weapon is Ellie’s gun, Jake sets out to find the killer and defend the life she’s built for herself in Maine. Before long, she starts to worry she or Ellie could be next. A bevy of memorable characters complement the breezy, intriguing plot. Established fans and newcomers alike will be satisfied. Agent: Christina Hogrebe, Jane Rotrosen Agency.
