A Houston reporter-turned-mixologist mixes it up with homicide on this “clever, page-turning mystery” sequence debut—for followers of Diane Mott Davidson and Lee Hollis (Darci Hannah, creator of Murder on the Beacon Bakeshop).
Bad information for Samantha Warren: The plucky Houston, Texas, reporter misplaced her job and her fiancé in fast succession. But Sam has a approach of making lemonade out of the bitterest of lemons. At a gathering of the native historical-homes council, she serves up the home made bitters that she made as items for her marriage ceremony occasion. She intends to make use of that as her “in” to change into an in-demand occasion mixologist. But the occasion’s over for one of the council members, who keels over useless quickly after he sips the bereft bride’s bitter brew.
It seems that the sufferer, Mark, was poisoned—his drink spiked with oleander. Since Sam blended the drink that Mark imbibed proper earlier than his demise, she finds herself on the entrance of the suspect line. Now, she’ll have to make use of all of her reporter’s knowledge and wiles to clear her title.
Who might have wished Mark useless? His spouse, Gabby? His girlfriend, Darcy? Someone who wished his seat on the council? Or one other citizen of this candy Texas city that holds some seedy secrets and techniques?
Job searching, constructing her mixology enterprise, and warding off late-night telephone calls from her almost betrothed don’t depart a lot time for sleuthing. But if Sam can’t “pour” over the clues to seek out the killer, it could quickly be final name for her.
