Mystery Amateur Sleuth | Mystery Culinary | Mystery Cozy
Bucolic Rumford, Kentucky has glowing fields of bluegrass, a fine selection of bourbons, and now a professional pastry chef. Broken-hearted Sophia Cummings has come home from New York City. Sheโs not there a minute before sheโs charmed into making her high school friend Charlotteโs wedding cake. The kitchen at the Rumford Country Club seems perfect until Chef Emileโs body is discovered, sprawled near the stove, a cast iron skillet on the floor close by. With one look at the shiny, new frying pan, Sophia knows itโs not Emileโs. She offers her knowledge to Sheriff Carter and her talents to Evelyn, the manager, who needs an interim chef. The mood in the country club is grim: Emileโs peppery personality had burned members and staff alike. Sophia wonders which one of them burned him?
