Family secrets create wonderful sparks and laugh-out-loud humor. — Christine DeSmet, author, Fudge Shop Mystery Series and Mischief in Moonstone Series

Deep Bitter Roots brims with intrigue, old family secrets, and local color.  Readers will cheer for Frankie as, while juggling the responsibilities of a baker, vintner, and journalist, she manages to out-sleuth the experts. –Kathleen Ernst, author of the Chloe Ellefson Mysteries

Add a deadly curse to a dowager’s mysterious death and you get a delectable recipe for Joy Ann Ribar’s second mystery of drama and intrigue. In Deep Bitter Roots, Frankie Champagne, a baker by day and a bartender by night, again dons her sleuth’s cap and plunges into  a smart and relentless pursuit of truth destined to delight the fans of Ribar’s cozy Midwest series set in charming Deep Lakes, Wisconsin.
Patricia Skalka, Author of Death By the Bay: A Dave Cubiak Door County Mystery

I fell in love with Frankie, her friends, and her town of Deep Lakes in Joy Ribar’s first book Deep Dark Secrets.  And with her second book, Deep Bitter Roots, I am now a devoted fan, and you will see me as a regular at Bubble and Bake. However, I am content sitting on the sidelines as Frankie investigates another murder, and this one hitting her in a way the reader will love and hate at the same time.  – Cozy Mystery Book Reviews
