MISS JULIA STIRS UP TROUBLE

MISS JULIA STIRS UP TROUBLE
IN PAPERBACK MARCH 2014!!

Miss Julia serves up the perfect next course—along with dozens of recipes from Abbotsville’s best cooks

With a crisp bite in the air, Miss Julia is enjoying a well-earned respite by her new fireplace. While the logs crackle, Miss Julia takes a rare moment to admire the colorful trees in her garden—and doesn't even worry about adding raking to the to-do list. Such quiet moments are rare in Miss Julia's life, and all too soon she discovers that, alas, autumn leaves aren't the only things falling. James, Hazel Marie's housekeeper, has had a nasty tumble down some stairs. How can Hazel Marie feed and take care of him—not to mention a husband and two babies—when she barely knows how to boil water?

Miss Julia jumps into help by convincing the ladies of Abbotsville to put on their aprons and give cooking lessons. Not only will they each share a favorite recipe with Hazel Marie, they will each demonstrate how to prepare their chosen dishes. Miss Julia soon has a bevy of eager chefs signed up, and she is relieved that Hazel Marie will have food on her table each evening to feed her growing family and, especially, the sometimes irascible Mr. J.D. Pickens, who seems to be spending too much time away from home.

With success so close she can taste it, Miss Julia must also contend with the arrival of Hazel Marie’s uncle, Brother Vern, an itinerant preacher with one hand in the offering plate and the other in the pockets of the nearest sinner. As she keeps a sharp eye on him, Miss Julia also learns that James may be dabbling in a shady scam—and that Lloyd may be his accomplice.

An internet scam, a crabby patient on bedrest, an overwhelmed lady of the house with a family to feed, and an unexpected guest with questionable intentions? It’s a recipe for trouble. And as usual, Miss Julia cooks up a plan—and serves up a delight.
