关于此电子书

USA Today–bestselling author:The lights have gone out permanently for a highly competitive caterer . . . “The plot is beyond engaging . . . A great protagonist.” —Rifflebooks
 
Caprice’s house staging is disrupted by Drew Pierson, a caterer who opened Portable Edibles, a business in direct competition with her sister Nikki's Catered Capers. Nikki turned down Drew as a possible partner and he seems determined to undermine and bury her.
 
But his successful deal for his blackberry barbecue sauce must have stirred up his enemies. When Nikki visits the house where Drew lives with his grandmother to resolve differences, she and Caprice find him dead—murdered with the base of a valuable Tiffany lamp.
 
Caprice discovers clues about Drew’s sly business dealings—from stealing recipes from another chef, to friends who hold grudges, to a sister who will now inherit half of her grandmother’s estate since Drew is dead. In the midst of her own romantic relationship upheaval, helping her uncle set up his pet sitting-business, and assisting in the care of a pregnant stray cat, Caprice follows the suspect trail, inadvertently putting herself in danger once more.
 
“An irresistible sleuth.” —Leslie Meier, New York Times–bestselling author of Irish Parade Murder
