Hayley Snow's getting married, she has one more assignment to turn in
for Key Zest magazine and a family Thanksgiving to get through before
her big day.
While working on her assignment, a woman mysteriously collapses
while on Hayley's food tour. The woman's rushed to the hospital, where
she later dies. Against her better judgment, Hayley gets sucked into
looking into her death. She promises Nathan she will be safe, so she
doesn't hesitate to tell him she's looking into the death.
Nathan's investigating an important case that leaves him working
nights. As a result, he and Hayley aren't able to spend much time
together. She worries about him, but she's learning that being his wife
means not always knowing what he's working on.
With the investigation, Thanksgiving prep, her article to write, and
preparing for the wedding, Hayley's starting to feel the pressure.
In tA DEADLY FEAST, the ninth Key West Food Critic Mystery,
Hayley Snow gets things done while eating great food (as usual, food
recipes accompany the novel), writing up an article, and solving a
mystery. Hayley's surrounded in this cozy series by family and friends.
With Hayley's wedding and Thanksgiving, family time adds a little
drama to the story. This cozy novel tackles heavier real-world issues by
the additions of the #MeToo movement and the discussion between
Hayley and Miss Gloria about prisoners and the problems with
incarceration in this country.
National bestselling author Lucy Burdette's intrepid
food critic Hayley Snow must sniff out a killer in the ninth
Key West Food Critic mystery.
Key West food
critic Hayley Snow scents-es something fishy when a customer
falls stone-crab cold dead on a seafood tasting
tour.
Thanksgiving is nearly here, and Key West
food critic Hayley Snow has just one more assignment to put
to bed for Key Zest magazine before she gets to
celebrate with her family and her police officer fiancé,
Nathan Bransford. Then, just days later, wedding bells will
ring—if death doesn't toll first.
The sweet potatoes
and stuffing will have to wait when Hayley picks up a
distraught phone call from her friend, Analise Smith. On the
last stop of a seafood tasting tour run by Analise, one of
the customers collapsed—dead. With the police on the verge
of shutting down the tour—and ruining Analise's
business—Hayley can hardly refuse her friend's entreaties
to investigate.
As if wedding jitters and family
strife weren't enough for Hayley to worry about, there's
crusty pastry chef Martha Hubbard, whose key lime pie may
have been the murder weapon—but did she poison her own pie
or was she framed? As the hours to Turkey Day tick away, the
pressure cooker is on for Hayley to serve up the culprit on
a silver platter in A Deadly Feast, national
bestselling author Lucy Burdette's taste-tempting ninth Key
West Food Critic mystery.
