Product Description
Product Description
Although food writer and dilettante chef Angie Amalfi is ready to start thinking about cutting a wedding cake with her delectable homicide detective boyfriend Paavo Smith, Paavo's got other things on his mind—mainly, the grisly murder of two San Francisco women. While he combs the city for clues to the brutal slayings, Angie begins a quest of her own: searching for a little gem of a restaurant for a magazine review. She discovers three grumpy old men who make a mean marinara, but seem to know nothing about how to run a business. At least not a culinary business. As Angie deals with the diamond-in-the-rough eatery and her sisters' unwelcome wedding advice, Paavo's inquiry points to Angie as next on the killer's hit list. The ever-game Ms. Amalfi takes off her oven mitts to join the investigation. But Angie's leaping head first into the stewpot for sure—because a murderer with a vendetta is more than willing to give one nosy chef her lethal just desserts.
Ingram
Trading in her chef's hat for a sleuthing cap, food columnist and talented cook Angie Amalfi helps her handsome detective boyfriend, Paavo Smith, set out to solve the gruesome homicides of two young women.

5.0 out of 5 stars
And the mystery ingredient is........,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cooking Most Deadly (Mass Market Paperback)
You will have to read the book to find out, but it sure is a doozey! I loved this book as I have all of the previous ones in the series, but this one is the funniest so far. I actually found myself laughing out loud a number of times. Pence keeps getting better; the story grabs you, the mystery keeps you guessing and the romance is great - what more can a person ask for!

Cooking Most Deadly,
By Kimberly (United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cooking Most Deadly (Mass Market Paperback)
As a great reader of mystery books, I can honestly say Joanna Pence is one of the best writers I've read recently and I've read a lot! Fast paced and interesting! Hopefully she and her homicide detective will continue through many more books in this series.

Best of the series (so far),
By A Customer
This review is from: Cooking Most Deadly (Mass Market Paperback)
This one has it all - suspense, romance and humor. If you haven't read any of these books, start at the beginning of the series and keep reading. Even though this isn't the last one, it's my favorite. I hope Joanne Pence keeps turning out the Angie Amalfi books.
