Malicious Malts (Cozy Corgi Mysteries Book 27) Kindle Edition

Old-fashioned malts, delicious waffle cones, and… poison.

Among the new businesses on Elkhorn Avenue, Doc’s Apothecary and Soda Shoppe adds a touch of yesteryear charm to the cozy Colorado mountain town of Estes Park. And while the delicious malts might be tempting, the owner is a childhood friend who elicits ambivalent emotions in Fred. To Watson, however, Donna Day is as good as any fancy treat… maybe even better!

The grand opening of Doc’s is an event that draws a mixed crowd—almost as eclectic as the ice cream flavors—that includes Fred’s closest friends and family along with others who… well, might not have Fred’s best interests at heart. A poisoning in the middle of the celebrations, and in the midst of an angry conversation, dampens the mood. Fred might want nothing more than several dirty chais, Katie’s pastries, and to curl up in the mystery room of the Cozy Corgi Bookstore and Bakery, but murder just can’t be ignored.

Following this trail leads Fred and Watson down a twisting ominous path into the past, where old secrets and dangerous connections bring consequences… for friends and enemies.

(This culinary cozy mystery includes a recipe for poison-free butter pecan ice cream.)

Bio: Reading the Cozy Corgi series is pretty much all you need to know about Mildred. In real life, this author is obsessed with everything they writes about: Corgis, Books, Cozy Mountain Towns, and Baked Goods. They're not obsessed with murder, however. At least not at their own hands (nor paid for… no contract killing here). But since childhood, starting with Nancy Drew, trying to figure out who-dun-it has played a formative role in their personality. Having Fred and Watson stroll into their mind was a touch of kismet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great read with continued character development of the folks in Estes Park

With continued evolving and unraveling of the many mysteries in Estes Park, Abbott makes these stories of Fred and Watson real page turners. With humor as well as mystery, murder, and mayhem, these stories are always a delight. Fred and friends continue to deal with the bad elements in their town as they solve another murder. And yet, turn some former enemies into friends.

I am very familiar with Estes Park, having grown up within an hours drive from there. I don't know any corgis personally, but they sure sound like a fun breed with cute faces to boot. The mysteries are always well thought out and the endings leave me wanting to start the next one immediately. The recipes at the back of the books are bonuses!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good read
Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2022

I admit I started reading this series because of the corgi. I still don't know how the author can keep churning them out so quickly. Engaging characters, good plot, although maybe a little too much detail? Don't get me wrong, I like the books. I just wonder if the writing could be tightened up a bit more? That said, this one, like the others, is a good mystery, centered around the newest shop in town, a malt shop, and my favorite quirky characters are there, with an unsavory one or two thrown in. It's probably best to read the series from the beginning, as I have, to understand all the background.

5.0 out of 5 stars MALTS, SECRETS AND MURDER!!!!!
Reviewed in the United States on November 18, 2022

I could always live in Estes Park as there is never a bad time for unusual and delicious sounding ice creams or the magic of a malt.
Doc’s Apothecary & Soda Shoppe has the nostalgic look of a vintage ice creamery but with unusual flavor combinations. This newest source of icy goodness comes with happy kitschy colors and collectible items to offer double treats.
The creator is one of Fred’s childhood friends and Watson’s few adored humans. Donna Day, newly arrived in Estes Park, is the younger sister of Fred’s former book publisher partner who has arrived with her new steroid-enhanced husband, actually Fred’s ex-husband.
While Fred and Family have agreed to not search for Boogeyman behind every corner, there are secrets weaving around, people pairing up in odd combinations. With a surprising, death, an almost death, and a life-changing secret reveal which makes the harridan of Estes Park attain a new low. The Scooby Gang feels as if they are dancing around odds and ends of unknown pieces. Even Fred is frustrated as her puzzle logic seems off. Not to dwell on the mystery aspect, there is plenty of furry four legged play times, and an adorable new puppy too!
All and all another superb Cozy Corgi Mystery read.
AND MOST IMPORTANT, Katie’s recipe for a no-churn Candied Butter Pecan Ice cream is included. A quick treat for tonight!

5.0 out of 5 stars Another great cozy doggy mystery

The continuing story of Fred (Winifred) and Watson is enchanting. While it is a continuing story, there are conclusions. Fred, with the help of her friends and her adorable corgi Watson, has gained a reputation for solving mysteries. She also owns a bookstore. Above the bookstore her best friend Katie has a bakery. Now what could be better than spending your days in a bookstore with a bakery and a corgi. I feel like these characters are my friends and I look forward to reading their adventures in each book. I recommend them to all cozy mystery readers.

I always love visiting The Cozy Corgi and all the people of Estes Park in this series. I’ve read the series multiple times especially when a new book comes out and each time the characters become deeper and more complex. Thank you for writing this amazing story.

s good story but flawed. The gang she put together attack people and committed crimes. There is a name for this. It is vigilantes. They tell lies and committed fake crimes to force testimony. Somehow the accised are never allowed to have lawyers make them quit talking. Susan should be fired for violation of civil rights.
