Dying for Dinner Rolls (The Chubby Chicks Club #1) by Lois Lavrisa

Cat and her friends are at the meeting of The Chubby Chicks when they find they need dinner rolls.  One of them goes home to bring some that she'd bought earlier that morning.  When she doesn't return, they go looking for her.  They certainly didn't expect to find her dead.  And the investigating cops are calling suicide.  Cat doesn't think so.

Instafreebies and the author allowed me to read this book for review (thank you).  You can buy a copy now.

Cat and Annie Mae head out to do some investigating on their own.  They have a cop club member but he's not on the case and can't help out.  It's a good thing he's on their speed dial though...

They're dumpster diving trying to find anything tied to the murder when someone sets it on fire!  They get kicked out of a grocery store, and almost get run over by a vehicle that comes up the curb.  And that's all on the first day!

I enjoyed the camaraderie between the friends, the out-of-the-box reasoning that Cat uses to help solve the mystery and she does survive in this first book.  Who knows what will happen in the next one?
