An Appetite For Murder

Police researcher Verity Long loves fine food and wine, so she's the perfect person to re-open the case of a murdered restaurant critic. The original investigation found no motive and no suspects, so solving the mystery of Crompton Carmichael's death will not be a piece of cake.

With his colleagues at the Midshires Gourmet magazine proving less than helpful and saddled with an assistant whose idea of a gourmet meal is meat pie and chips, Verity begins to roux the day she agreed to take on the case.

Then, when she has the sauce to ask probing questions, her own life is threatened.

Will Verity live to taste Death by Chocolate again? Or will the killer make mincemeat of her?
