About the Author:
New York Times bestselling author Julie Hyzy writes the White House Chef Mysteries, including Fonduing Fathers and Affairs of Steak, and the Manor House Mysteries for Berkley Prime Crime. She has won both the Anthony and the Barry awards for her mystery fiction.
From Booklist:
The seventh in Hyzy’s White House Chef series finds Ollie Paras facing an important state dinner, upcoming nuptials, personnel issues in the kitchen, and, of course, some murders to solve. The White House and government protocols give this series added interest, and the fact that numerous officials aren’t pleased with Ollie’s insistent sleuthing adds a realistic touch. Pacing is one of Hyzy’s strengths, enabling her books to combine a cozy setting with a thriller-like feel. That’s especially true this time, as the tension builds to a genuinely exciting conclusion. The addition of a new love interest for Ollie and the introduction of the president’s son as a kitchen intern keep the story as fresh as the ingredients in the delicious dish descriptions. Fans of both food mysteries and D.C. thrillers will enjoy the action and the ambience. --Amy Alessio
