Description

In a delicious new Domestic Diva Mystery from New York Times bestselling author Krista Davis, entertaining guru Sophie Winston is coordinating a convention for ghost kitchens in Old Town, Alexandria-and trying to keep a killer from making a deadly delivery... Sophie is busy handling the first ever convention of the Association of Ghost Kitchens-restaurants that do delivery only-but she's taking a little time out for a lunch meeting organized by A Healthy Meal. The group is dedicated to providing meals for children in need, and as a bonus, it'll give Sophie the perfect opportunity to ogle the lavish Old Town home of socialite Geraldine Stansfield. Gerrie's dining room is impeccably furnished, the table laden with gleaming crystal and prized china. If it weren't for the dead man lying on the floor, everything would be perfect . . . No one knows the victim-or at least, no one claims to. But a little snooping by Sophie reveals links to many local notables. In fact, not only was he a client of Geraldine's late husband, an attorney-every member of the Stansfield clan knew the deceased. But only one knows what he was doing in Gerrie's house. Gerrie's elegant abode looks spotless, but there's plenty of dirty linen in those family closets. Now Sophie will have to get the killer to come clean before he spoils another appetite-for good . . . Includes delicious recipes and fabulous decorating tips!

Mystery-wise, I felt that this was the strongest of Ms. Daviss plots to date. I also really enjoyed the ongoing developments in our regular cast of characters personal lives: Natasha especially is a hoot, even if appallingly so on more than one occasion. Im already looking forward to the next installment in the series! Criminal Element on The Diva Cooks up a Storm
