The Man in the Microwave Oven by Susan Cox
Following Susan Cox's Minotaur Books/Mystery Writers of America First Crime Novel award-winning debut, The Man in the Microwave Oven is her next delightfully quirky mystery featuring San Francisco transplant Theo Bogart.
To escape a family scandal in her native England, Theo changed her name and moved to San Francisco, where she runs a soap store called Aromas. But her quiet new life was upended when a murder rocked her neighborhood. Now, just as the dust is settling, Theo's best friend, Nat Moore, finds a human finger in the microwave oven at his coffee shop. Not knowing what it means or what to do, he turns to Theo for help. Meanwhile, Theo's grandfather is disappearing back into the shadowy world he used to inhabit as an agent for the British Secret Service, and he may have brought an even bigger breed of trouble right to Theo's doorstep. Once again Susan Cox has painted a delightful portrait of a colorful San Francisco neighborhood and a woman finding her way through just the kind of scandalous mystery she was trying so hard to leave behind.Susan Cox worked as a journalist in the past. She's also worked as a marketing and public relations director for a safari park, a nonprofit fundraiser, and the president of the Palm Beach County (Florida) Attractions Association. She considers herself transcontinental and transatlantic, equally at home in San Francisco and Florida, as well as in England, where she has a huge and loud extended family. Because you never know, she frequently wears a Starfleet communicator pin. The Man on the Washing Machine, her debut novel, won the Minotaur Books/Mystery Writers of America First Crime Novel Competition in 2014.
