Restaurateur Sally Solariโs cousin Evelyn may be blind, but she can see all too clearly that her chef motherโs death wasnโt an accidental overdoseโshe was murdered. Santa Cruz restaurateur Sally Solariโs life is already boiling over as she deals with irate cooks and other staffing issues at the busy Gauguin restaurant. The rainy December weather isnโt cooling things down, either. So sheโs steamed when her dad persuades her to take in Evelyn, her estranged blind cousin whose mother has just died of a drug overdose. But Evelyn proves to be lots of fun and sheโs a terrific cook. Back at the house sheโd shared with her mom, Evelynโs heightened sense of touch tells her that various objectsโa bottle of cranberry juice, her grandfatherโs jazz recordsโare out of place. She and her mom always kept things in the same place so Evelyn could find them. So she suspects that her motherโs death was neither accident nor suicide, no matter what the police believe. The cousinsโ sleuthing takes Sally and Evelyn into the world of macho commercial kitchens, and the cutthroat competitiveness that can flame up between chefs. In Leslie Karstโs scrumptious fourth Sally Solari mystery, Sally will have to chop a long list of suspects down to size or end up getting burned.
