Gourmet food market owner Erin
Murphy is determined to get Jewel Bay, Montana’s,
scrumptious local fare some national attention. But her
scheme for culinary celebrity goes up in flames when the
town’s big break is interrupted by murder . . .
Food Preneurs, one of the hottest cooking shows on TV, has
decided to feature Jewel Bay in an upcoming episode, and
everyone in town is preparing for their close-ups, including
the crew at the Glacier Mercantile, aka the Merc. Not only
is Erin busy remodeling her courtyard into a relaxing dining
area, she’s organizing a steak-cooking competition between
three of Jewel Bay’s hottest chefs to be featured on the
program.
But Erin’s plans get scorched when one of the contending
cooks is found dead. With all the drama going on behind the
scenes, it’s hard to figure out who didn’t have a motive to
off the saucy contestant. Now, to keep the town’s reputation
from crashing and burning on national television, Erin will
have to grill some suspects to smoke out the killer . . .
