Book Description
Angie Amalfi's latest job, developing the menu for a new inn, sounds enticing -- especially since it means spending a week in scenic northern California with her homicide detective boyfriend. But once she arrives at the soon-to-be-opened Hill Haven Inn and is surrounded by a bunch of antagonistic investors and a chef/owner with less-than-appetizing ideas about cuisine, Angie's not so sure. The added ingredients of an ominous threat, a missing person, and a woman making eyes at her man, leave Angie convinced the only recipe in this inn's kitchen is one for disaster.
