This time it is an old cabin and her clients are doing photo shoots with twiggy models. Some of this seems crazy and it takes me a while to piece together who is who but another entertaining read with good recipes. ( ) Goldy Shultz, caterer, has a mess on her hands. The contractor who was repairing her kitchen window, broken by her now incarcerated ex, has stopped work. He left her commercial kitchen a disaster, and Goldy is worried about a pop in inspection by the health department. There’s. New caterer in town who is undercutting her business. Tom, her detective husband, is on an unpaid leave due to a conflict with the district attorney over the death of their contractor. Goldy’s old boss has hired her to help cater some photo shoots. The death of her old boss and their contractor causes headaches on Mille levels. She can’t even confide in her best friend who is in the midst of an IRS audit, complements of their ex husband reaching out from the prison. Even, the local museum is having problems; someone broke in and stole a bunch of historical cookbooks. But, life goes on as Goldy tries to sort things out. It was a decent read. Lots of characters to help stir the plot and misdirect. Humor and action were average for this series. It was a decent quick read, but nothing to write home about. Not really sure about the accuracy of the title, but loved it any way. Goldy's food world is crashing down all around her. Tom, her husband, has been suspended for something he did not do; Goldy's kitchen is a mess thanks to a contractor who has taken her money but not finished the work (said contractor later turns up dead); there is a new caterer in town who is undercutting Goldy's prices and taking her clients. And then there is her ex-husband and even though he is in jail, he is still being a thorn in the flesh for both Goldy and Marla (the other ex-wife). Loved the mystery of it all and the sumptuous recipes that are included. A friend of mine gave me earlier books in this series a number of years ago. As with all books of this type, it does strike me as odd that no one seems to care that dead bodies show up all around this caterer. Only one in town or not, I think I'd prefer an event with no dead bodies, even if I had to hire someone from the next big town to get it! Other than that, this is the standard installment for this series with a few twists. Goldy has some competition in the catering world for a change. Though, of course, that bit works itself out by the end of the book--she might still have some competition, but at least it will be on more equal footing. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
