For the second time in as many months, Daphne Martin finds herself telling a police officer, βI just delivered the cake.β
Several people became sick at Brea Ridge Pharmaceuticalsβ annual holiday party for its employees, and oneβFred Duncanβ died. Fredβs mother insists on Daphneβs help in learning why Fred died; and since none of the food has yet been exonerated, Daphne feels compelled to find out what made everyone so ill. Sheβs pretty sure it wasnβt her cake, but she canβt be certain until the police complete the lab results. Was this an accident? Or did someone set out to kill Fred?
