This article was a lot of fun! As I was reading, I thought of “Fried Green Tomatoes”. There was a murder in that novel, too. And lots of food! Did you know Fanny Flagg write the Fried Green Tomatoes cookbook?

I don’t think I can find the ingredients you listed first the Pumpkin Spice Latte here where I live, but it sounds delicious!(insert blue pumpkin icon)

Oh, btw, I’m well into my third in the library series with Diesel the cat. They’re great.👍🏽

I didn’t know there was a cookbook, thanks! I’m glad you like Diesel. Miranda James is a fun writer.

Your capture of “the perfect backdrop for the Mystery genre” beautifully brings the essence of autumn to life. Your writing effortlessly invites me into the cosy embrace of these stories while you always offer a wealth of knowledge about the genre. The thoroughness of your list makes my choice tricky. :)
