By the Spoonful is Snowflake, Vermont’s most popular soup shop, but owner Lucky Jamieson doesn’t have any time to enjoy her success—she’s too busy trying to keep a lid on false accusations against her loved ones…

It’s almost May, and some of the local ladies have organized a pagan celebration in the woods to welcome spring. But the evening goes terribly wrong when one of the attendees winds up dead, apparently poisoned by an herbal concoction prepared by Lucky’s grandfather, Jack.

Lucky’s sure her grandfather could not have made such a tragic mistake. But before she can clear him of suspicion, her best friend, Sophie, is diverted from planning her wedding to By the Spoonful chef Sage DuBois when she finds a dead man floating in the creek on her property. Now it’s up to Lucky to get both Sophie and Jack out of hot water before a killer stirs up more trouble…

My review: Ladle to the Grave by Connie Archer

4 STARS

Ladle to the Grave is the fourth book in the A Soup Lover's Mystery series.  This is the first one that I have read though.  I liked it.  I thought it stood alone alright.  The characters had a past, and were interesting.  I was wrong on what I believed about who were the murder was and the motive.  Other twists I saw coming.

Lucky Jamieson is the main character.  She is a good friend, talented and owns By the Spoonful.  A soup shop.  Lucky is hosting a wedding for her fiend Sophie.  Even going to the trouble to make her dress.

In Snowflake there has been two mystery deaths.  The first one it looks like Lucky's Grandfather Jack might be at fault.  The second one is on Sophie's family land and found him.

Jack is Lucky's grandfather.  He has PSTD from the war years ago.  He is a gardener and knows wild plants.

I liked the humor of the town on planning to go to  the wedding even though they were planning a small wedding. (That might be just because my daughter's wedding was just two weeks ago.) I liked the wedding plans.

The setting is small Vermont town with a ski resort up the mountain.  The ski resort wants to buy Sophie's family property. Sophie works as a ski instructor for the resort.

 I would like to go and read the first three books of the series sometime and look forward to reading more about Lucky and friends.

I was given this ebook to read so that I could give a honest review in return and be part of Ladle to the Grave blog tour.
