Victoria and her husband, Greg, run the Charming Moose Diner in Jasper Fork, North Carolina, assisted by her extended family. One day a stranger serves Victoria with papers indicating he owns the land the diner was built on. Victoria’s grandfather purchased the land from the original owner, the mystery man’s father, but of course he can’t find any documentation on it. Things were done on a handshake in those days. The mystery man winds up dead in the diner’s freezer and Victoria’s family heads up the suspect pool.

I only got 67% through this book, so take my review with a grain of salt. I remember trying to read this once before, back in the early days of owning a Kindle, and gave up because I found the characters annoying. Fast forward a few years, it was free, I’d forgotten I tried to read it previously, and I like the author’s other work.

This was a slooooow read for me. In fact, the only reason I made it as far as I did was because I was on the elliptical machine at the gym and I didn’t want to slow down to pick out another book. The plot had some potential, but the characters were boring and annoying. I did like the relationship between Victoria and Greg, but everyone else, including the grandfather, got on my nerves. I finally gave up in frustration. I can highly recommend some of the author’s other series (“she” is a he and writes under several pseudonyms), but this one – meh.

This is another quick and "fun" little mystery by this author. I like the characters in this series better than the donut shop series.

I would recommend this to someone looking for some light sleuthing. Literary art it ain't, but it is entertaining.
This was great. Fun cast of characters, story doesn’t drag but moves along at a great pace. The relationship between granddaughter and grandfather was spunky and sweet! Can’t wait to order to next book and get reading!
Although this sounded like a great cozy mystery, it took me forever to finish! I will not give up on this author or this series yet, but hopefully the second book will be better.
I enjoy Jessica Beck's writing and seek out her series, but this one was disappointing. The characters were dull and flat and the story couldn't hold my interest. It took me months to finish it because I kept going to a different book. I bought the second book, Deadly Beef, before I got into this one and probably won't bother with it for awhile. The early reviews look better, so maybe when my library starts running low.....
All these are the same story line and one is enough! I was sorry I bought another. Choose some other book!
First of a series. Flimsy premise. The narrator is owner of her family's diner, and during the course of the series, people either die after eating at the restaurant or a family member becomes a suspect in a murder. Cozy mystery and all right -- I read all of the available books -- but nothing to write home about. The banter between the narrator and her grandfather is probably the best part. It rings true -- most of the time.
This is the first volume in the new series that takes place in Jasper Fork, North Carolina. We have a husband and wife team owning a diner named "The Charming Moose."

The husband, Greg, and his wife, Victoria really love their lives. The diner has been in Victoria's family for decades and her Grandparents, and parents have deeded it down to the couple. Now, the deed is in question.

A man no one has ever seen nor heard of, Howard Lance, walks in and announces with a legal Eviction notice, that his Father, deceased, never actually sold, or recorded the sale of the property, and they are being served with the papers to evict. Naturally, this is not something Greg and Victoria are willing to do without a battle.

This is cause for a family meeting, and we are introduced to 'Moose,' Victoria's Grandfather and fellow sleuth.

I enjoyed this tale, but wish that there was more background on the main characters, for instance, a last name? How did Greg and Victoria meet? What is behind the moniker of Grandfather? Perhaps, we will find out in the next book, "A Bad Beef."
