A collapsed soufflé. A missing chef. And a grand opening that turns into a murder scene.
Pastry chef Penelope "Penny" Bennett has poured everything into The Golden Whisk, her savings, her recipes, and eight exhausting months of partnership with a brilliant, insufferable head chef.
Tonight is opening night. Tonight is supposed to be the beginning. Instead, Chef Julian Moreau turns up dead in the wine cellar, poisoned before the first course ever reached the table, and Penny's own recipe card is sitting at the scene.
With her business frozen behind police tape and her name at the top of the suspect list, Penny has exactly one advantage the detective doesn't:
She knows this kitchen, this town, and exactly how much almond extract it takes to change everything.
Armed with a sharp palate, a sharper sous-chef, and one extremely opinionated calico cat, Penny sets out to clear her name before Willow Harbor decides her story is already over.
The suspects are plentiful. The clues are baked in. And the killer is still setting the table.
Perfect for readers who love:
- A charming small-town harbor setting - A determined amateur sleuth with something to prove - Culinary detail rich enough to make you hungry
- A clever, clue-driven mystery with zero graphic violence
- A scene-stealing cat who may be smarter than the detective:
MURDER ON THE MENU is a standalone chef cozy mystery; there are no cliffhangers and no prior books are required.
