Lulu
Taylor knows a thing about barbeque and her restaurant has stood the test of
time. However when an anonymous food critic starts handing out unfair reviews
to more than one Memphis restaurant Lulu gets a bad feeling. Unlike cornbread
and cobbler murder is not supposed to be a side dish at Aunt Pat's Restaurant.
Sure enough murder is all anyone can talk about at Aunt Pat's and this must
stop.
Lulu
takes off her apron and dones her sluething cap with a little help from her
grandaughter they set out to uncove clues and take on crime.
Eppie
Currian, does not exsist because it turns out that is just a cover name for
Evelyn's boyfriend and not only is relationship with Evelyn sliced a little
thin because he's cheating on Evelyn but more than a few people are unhappy
with his reviews.
Soon
enough there are ex-wives, former restaurant owners, ex-boyfriends and chefs
seeing red but that doesn't begin to cover the suspect list when Adam
Cawthorn is found dead in the by Lulu's grandaughters but this also might be a
political hot bed of crime.
This is
a close to home murder that only a little jazz, a lot of sleuthing and only
Lulu can put murder on the menu to rest.
I loved
FINGER LICKIN' DEAD and I hated to see it end. However there are recipes to try
but wait until after you read the book to try them.
I give
this one a 10 out 0f 10 stars.
Hugs,
Pam
