Cozy with a chance of meatballs... When style expert Samantha Kidd plans a holiday in Italy, she expects scenic piazzas, endless pasta, and maybe a little romance—not a murder mystery older than her passport. Samantha’s idyllic vacation comes to a screeching halt when a favor for her host pulls her into a decades-old mystery and lands her in more hot water than her morning espresso. The case? The murder of Alfredo, the town’s most hated man. The suspect? Pasquale, a mild-mannered cobbler who has spent decades in prison for the crime. The twist? Samantha’s host should have been Pasquale’s alibi—if she hadn't left town that night to start invasive cancer treatments in Switzerland. Armed with her quick wit, a love of gelato, and the undercover help of her shoe designer husband, Samantha will need all the luck she can muster to solve the crime and make it through her getaway alive. Murder Italian Style is a sparkling mystery for anyone who loves their whodunits served with a side of laughter and linguini. Settle in with a glass of Prosecco; this is one vacation you won't forget!
