In the picturesque tourist town of Fredericksburg, Texas, Tally Holt has opened a new candy store with a vintage twist . . .but there's no sugar-coating a nasty case of murder . . .
Tally Holt has poured her heart, soul, and bank account into Tally's Olde Tyme Sweets, specializing in her grandmother's delicious recipes. Tally's homemade Mallomars, Twinkies, fudges, and taffy are a hit with visiting tourists-and with Yolanda Bella, the flamboyant owner of Bella's Baskets next door. But both shops encounter a sour surprise when local handyman Gene Faust is found dead in Tally's kitchen, stabbed with Yolanda's scissors.
The mayor's adopted son, Gene was a handsome Casanova with a bad habit of borrowing money from the women he wooed. It's a sticky situation for Yolanda, who was one of his marks. There are plenty of other likely culprits among Fredericksburg's female population, and even among Gene's family. But unless Tally can figure out who finally had their fill of Gene's sweet-talking ways, Yolanda-and both their fledgling businesses-may be destined for a bitter end . . .
