Blurb:
The plan was to start over here with the picture-perfect Genova’s pastry elite; not to catch the culprit who iced the last chef.
When Paolo’s death goes from natural causes to murder, my trip to the beautiful Italian harbour town turns into a case of spine-chilling whodunit.
I whip up confections, not conspiracies. But my scruffy clue-sniffing beagle has different plans for us in this sun-kissed town; to remove the stench of murder.
Motives linger as the sous chef, Enzo, craves the spotlight, while Luca, the supplier, has a sour taste left behind after a heated argument. Even Giulia, the secretive shop owner, serves up suspicion on a silver platter.
As Alex, the charming detective and I team up to unravel the secrets that lie beneath the flour-dusted streets, danger meets us head on.
But just when we find the truth, the threats get closer and whispers tell me it’s not over.
I must get to the bottom of the lies before the next souffle to be cooked is mine.
My Review:
When Bella overhears someone discussing the death of their last chef, her antennas perk up. Initially, it was believed that the chef died from a heart attack. But did he? Did someone want him dead? If so, why?
Bella and Cinnamon are on the case, determined to uncover the truth about the chef's fate. As she begins her investigation, she discovers numerous suspects, as several people seem to have issues with the chef.
Bella races against the clock to uncover what happened to the chef before they strike again. How intense is that? The plot thickens.
Demise by Dessert kept me hanging on every word as I tried to piece together what happened to the chef, but that was nearly impossible with all the twists that kept popping up, putting a damper on my excitement. Then another twist came my way, and I was off again, racing to see how it all concluded.
I highly recommend Demise by Dessert to all mystery fans! Grab a copy today to find out what happened to the chef!
