Synopsis:
Trying to escape her overbearing mother, vintage kitchenware enthusiast and soon-to-be columnist Jaymie Leighton retreats to her family’s cottage on Heartbreak Island. While there she hopes to write an article about the Ice House restaurant, owned by good friends and neighbors, siblings Ruby and Garnet Redmond. Once an actual icehouse, the restaurant is charmingly decorated with antique tools of the trade, including a collection of ice picks.
One night, while working on her article, Jaymie overhears an argument and, ever the sleuth, sets out to explore. But when she stumbles upon a dead body her blood runs cold. It’s Urban Dobrinskie, whose feud with the Redmonds is no secret, and he’s got an ice pick through his heart. Now Jaymie’s got to sharpen her sleuthing skills to chip away at the mystery and prove her neighbors’ innocence—before someone else gets picked off…

My Review:
What a great book ~ I really liked Freezer I’ll Shoot. I loved Jayme who while trying to get over a boyfriend starts converting vintage recipes into ones people could cook today. She goes to stay at her families cottage to try to work on her new column of vintage recipes. One night while working she heard some noise and discovered a dead body. She needs to find out who murdered Urban and help prevent any other murders. You will need to see what happens – it is a nail bitter!

Cozy mysteries are mini vacations where I can be the hero.

I waited a long time for the first book and I had fell in love with the cover. I had to have the second book because I enjoyed the first one so much. Would love to have the third on too. I too love soup.
