Product Description
Thanks to her recent adventures in Dying for Chocolate, Goldy Bear, the premier caterer of Aspen Meadow, Colorado, is no stranger to violence--or sudden death. But when she agrees to cater the first College Advisory Dinner for Seniors and Parents at the exclusive Elk Park Preparatory School, the last thing she expects to find at the end of the evening is the battered body of the school valedictorian.
Who could have killed Keith Andrews, and why? Goldy's hungry for some answers--and not just because she found the corpse. Her young son, Arch, a student at Elk Park Prep, has become a target for some not-so-funny pranks, while her eighteen-year-old live-in helper, Julian, has become a prime suspect in the Andrews boy's murder.
As her investigation intensifies, Goldy's anxiety level rises faster than homemade doughnuts. . .as she turns up evidence that suggests that Keith knew more than enough to blow the lid off some very unscholarly secrets. And then, as her search rattles one skeleton too many, Goldy learns a crucial fact: a little knowledge about a killer can be a deadly thing.

Format:Mass Market Paperback
This was the first Goldy Schultz I read and I found it refreshing, mouth-watering and the plot gripped me. It is the first book of the 'cosy' crime type that I have tried and I loved the fact that it stayed within the boundaries of true life with an ordinary but feisty and intelligent heroine who was doing her best to run a business and bring up a child on her own. The fact that her business is food was an added incentive, although the fact that she is always cooking lovely taste-bud-tempting cakes is a bit difficult to cope with - just as well all the ingredients in the occasional recipe are of the US variety and too much trouble to convert to metric!
I enjoyed the mystery, was comfortable with the fact that I could read it in bed without the risk of nightmares, and think it makes a nice change from the rest of the violence, tension and stress in a lot of the fiction that I have been reading lately.
I am going to read the rest of the series, but not all at once, two or three a year would be about right for me. In between Connelly, Mankell, Camilleri, Leon, Indriadson, Nesbo...

Thoroughly enjoy this mystery series. The characters are believable and familiar in reactions to everyday events. Goldy's relationship with her son and her ex is both humorous and believable. Have tried some of the recipes and they were wonderful....

Tedious, confusing, not one of her better books
It took me a long time to finish this book. I have zipped through her other books, this one I was tempted to leave unfinished. I kept waiting to find out who? Why? etc. Read more
