SILENCE OF THE JAMS by Gayle Leeson

The Second Down South Cafe Mystery

Amy Flowers is gearing up for the Independence day holiday when George Lincoln stops by her Down South Cafe. Although he doesn't pester her as much as usual, he ends up causing more trouble when he drops dead right after eating his breakfast! Although everyone is sure he keeled over from a heart attack, including the doctor sitting with him at the time, Amy wonders if he may have been murdered. After all, George rubbed most people the wrong way. Amy decides to look into who may have wanted George dead in order to protect her reputation and that of her cafe, especially since it turns out George was poisoned!

This second Down South Cafe is a fast paced culinary treat. Not only to we have the mystery of George's death, we also have the repercussions of Renee's return to town. Amy's aunt is a fly by night wreaking havoc and upturning the lives of her family whenever she flits into Winter Garden. A solicitous doctor, a threatening brother, an unhappy wife, and a secretary who may have her own agenda make enthralling characters. Gayle Leeson also tackles the serious topic of addiction. The author handles this subject matter realistically without detracting from the storyline.

SILENCE OF THE JAMS combines the love and interdependence of family with a well plotted mystery amidst a backdrop of lip smacking comfort food to create a delectable read.
