It’s time for a savory soirée—but
something sinister is stewing—in Raquel V.
Reyes’s second delightful Caribbean Kitchen mystery,
perfectly delicious for fans of Mia P. Manansala.
Fall festivities are underway in Coral Shores, Miami.
Cuban-American cooking show star Miriam Quiñones-
Smith wakes up to find a corpse in her front yard. The body
by the fake tombstone is the woman that was kicked out of
the school's Fall Festival the day before. Miriam's luck does not improve. Her passive-aggressive
mother-in-law puts her in charge of the Women's Club annual
gala. But this year, it's not canapes and waltzes. Miriam
and her girlfriends-squad opt for fun and flavor. They want
to spice it up with Caribbean food trucks and a calypso
band. While making plans at the country club, they hear a
volatile argument between the new head chef and the club's
manager. Not long after, the chef swan dives to his death at
the bottom of the grand staircase. Was it
an accident? Or was it Beverly, the sous chef, who is
furious after being passed over for the job? Or maybe it was
his ex-girlfriend, Anastasia? Add two
possible poisonings to the mix and Miriam is worried the
food truck fun is going to be a major crash. As the clock
ticks down and the body count goes up, Miriam's life is put
in jeopardy. Will she connect the dots or die in the deep
freeze? Foodies and mystery lovers alike will savor
the denouement as the truth is laid bare in this
simmering stew of rage, retribution, and murder.
