In Las Vegas, the stakes are high—and so is the Scoville
scale. Maxie Pierce and the Chili Showdown are in town for a
very heated contest devoted to judging the legendary and
notorious-for-being-self-combustible Devil’s Breath chili.
The guest judges are casino performers with a taste for
chili and an eye for publicity.
Maxie is already going mad organizing the event, dealing
with her snide half sister, Sylvia, and trying to figure out
her hothead of security, Nick. But when a local hack
comedian drops dead in the middle of the Showdown, it isn’t
the spicy dish—it’s poison. And Maxie is going to have to
shuffle through a full deck of suspects to pick out the culprit.
I have never been to Vegas, although at one time I really wanted to go there. As I'm getting older, the urge is slowly waning, although if given the chance, I wouldn't pass it up. You make it sound even more exhillarating than I would have guessed!! Your book sounds like quite the mystery, with a little bit of fun thrown in, and I wouldn't miss this ride for the world!! The cover to your book is so colorful, and very well-illustrated, too!! Congratulations on what I'm sure will be a great addition to the series!! (Peggy Roberson 10:06am August 13, 2014)
