I'm currently reading A Hush at Midnight by Marlene M. Bell. 

It's been a long time since chef Laura Harris has visited her mentor Hattie Stenburg. When she finally arrives at the antebellum home she finds the 93 year old Hattie more fragile, though she's still up for a pleasant visit. Laura's more shocked at the brusque, almost hostile, manner of Hattie's caregiver. The bad feeling intensifies so much on her drive home that she turns around and returns to Hattie's where she finds the elderly woman dead. Where was the caregiver who promised to stay the night? Or the groundskeeper? Certain that Hattie's death was not natural Laura demands answers only to find out that she's become a suspect. As if dealing with her mentor's death and being a suspect isn't enough, someone is maligning her friend's bakery and she's receiving threats telling her to leave Texas. Will Laura find the answers she seeks? Or will she become the next victim?
