Grilled Beef Kebabs

 

In my Open Book Series (A Deadly Dedication coming August 1), in the small town of Upper Chumley-on-Stoke there is a take-out place called Kebabs and Curries where Penelope Parish often picks up dinner to take back to her cottage.  I decided to make my own kebabs adapted from a recipe on the blog Delicious on a Dime.  They were a huge success--easy to make and very flavorful.  It was raining so I couldn't grill them but they came out fine in the oven.  I served them with tzatziki sauce and a salad.  I also halved the recipe and I wish I hadn't so I could have put some in the freezer for another time. (Be sure to see cover reveal after recipe!)

Family fireworks lead to murder in the new Cranberry Cove Mystery from USA Today bestselling author Peg Cochran!

The Fourth of July always means endless celebrations in Cranberry Cove, and this year Monica and Greg have the added pleasure of spending it with Monica’s college roommate, Kelly Cargill. When they join Kelly and her family to watch the fireworks, it’s all very exciting—until the elderly matriarch of the family dies on the spot. Then evidence comes to light that she was poisoned, and Monica promises to do what she can to catch the culprit.

Just about everyone in Kelly’s family wanted to get their hands on what was sure to be a sizable inheritance. But Monica also discovers that one of them was trying to hide a messy love affair the older woman had discovered, and that the victim’s caretaker may have wanted revenge for enduring years of mistreatment. And just as more secrets surface and the clues begin to fall into place, Monica realizes that as she’s closing in on the killer, the killer is closing in on her . . .
