Overview

Weddings can be murder!

Murder Takes the Cake is the exciting sequel to Murder Off the Books. Mac Sullivan, Rachel, and Whiskey return to solve another case.

"What do a sexy mortician, a feisty septuagenarian with a souped-up scooter, and an Irish wolfhound with a nose for murder have in common? They're all helping Washington DC p.i. Mac Sullivan find out who's trying to kill a very nervous bride-to-be. Smart, fast and laugh-out-loud funny, Murder Takes the Cake is another tasty treat from Evelyn David who takes readers on a merry chase from a turkey farm in Virginia all the way to Capitol Hill. And JJ, a goth computer expert, is one of the coolest characters I've met in years!" - Rosemary Harris – author of Pushing Up Daisies.

"Murder Takes the Cake" is another delicious treat from Evelyn David. All of our old friends are back--including Rachel, Mac, and of course, Whiskey--in this tale of murder and deception involving missing caskets, several dead bodies, and a wedding few want to take place. Mac Sullivan, a complicated protagonist with a canine best friend, is good at solving mysteries but not as adept in the romance department. Will Mac and Rachel make the relationship they've been dancing around a reality? But more importantly, will he be able to stay out of the line of fire, even as the body count rises? Evelyn David leaves me hungry for more books in this series!" - Maggie Barbieri -author of the Alison Bergeron mystery series.

"Murder Takes the Cake is precisely what cozy mysteries are all about!
Beautifully plotted, with a splendid cast of characters, this book is another highly entertaining read from Evelyn David." - Jessica Conant Park - author of the Gourmet Girl mystery series and Flat Out Love.

"Evelyn David’s newest Mac Sullivan/Rachel Brenner mystery, Murder Takes the Cake, sparkles with wit and don’t-see-‘em-coming plot twists—just what a wedding needs—along with a little murder and mayhem, of course! Irresistible fun!" - Jane K. Cleland, author of the Josie Prescott Antiques Mystery series, including Killer Keepsakes.

"An endearing cast of characters will charm you in this clever and well-written mystery! Romance, suspense, a solid story and an adorable dog--Murder Takes the Cake is sweetly hilarious and a real treat." - Hank Phillippi Ryan, Agatha Award winning author of Prime Time.

Editorial Reviews

Shelley Glodowski
MURDER TAKES THE CAKE is light-hearted fun, with a little mystery; a little romance; a little family dysfunction; and several out-of-the-ordinary adventures thrown in to make it a fun-filled whodunit.
