Murder on the Menu
Miranda Bliss

Includes recipes for a multi-course gourmet meal!

Best friends Annie and Eve know the bare bones of both cooking and amateur sleuthing. Now, they're in the trenches, struggling to keep a new restaurant, Bellywasher's, from going belly up...

Annie and Eve have joined their former cooking teacher, Jim—who doubles as Annie's on-again, off-again boyfriend—in running his new restaurant. Bombshell Eve is the hostess, while Annie stays behind the scenes, frantically managing everything from the books to the radicchio supply. Then a rave review makes the spot an instant success, drawing Washington's high-powered elite to sample Jim's cooking...people with both money and secrets to burn.

Everything's simmering along just fine until Annie and Eve find their friend Sarah, staffer for a powerful congressman, lying dead in her tub. The cops want to write it off as a suicide, but the girls notice that, like Annie's invoices, the facts just don't add up. Then, after a series of suspicious "accidents" that come dangerously close to taking the girls permanently out of commission, Annie and Eve realize that this kitchen fire isn't about to put itself out...
