When you’re working side by side… Sometimes you have to watch your back. Juicy steaks and other mouthwatering morsels mean that the Iron and Flame restaurant is busier than ever. For restauranteur and amateur sleuth, Lydia Thackery, that’s going to mean working some weekend shifts. It’ll be the first time in years that she’ll be bustling around the gleaming commercial kitchen right next to her ex-husband, Jeremy. The deep freeze isn’t the chilliest place in the kitchen when the two of them have the same shift, but they manage to make it through unscathed…until Lydia has her meal. She’s been poisoned. Fortunately, she survives, but now she’s faced with an ugly reality. Someone tried to poison her, in her own restaurant. That means the suspects are narrowed down to her ex, or her staff, and either possibility is a hard pill to swallow. Knowing her life is on the line after the first attempt, Lydia has to catch a killer before they try to strike again. The next time, they might succeed. Can she crack the case in time? Find out in this edge-of-your-seat Culinary Cozy Mystery!
