Amy Pershing, who spent every summer of her childhood on Cape Cod, was an editor, a restaurant reviewer and a journalist before sitting down to write the Cape Cod Foodie Mystery series, including A Side of Murder -- which Elizabeth Gilbert called "the freshest, funniest mystery I have ever read" -- and An Eggnog to Die For -- which Kirkus Reviews gave a starred review, saying, A delightful sleuth, a complex mystery, and lovingly described cuisine: a winner for both foodies and mystery mavens. The third book in the series, Murder Is No Picnic, will be published in the summer of 2022.
