Про цю електронну книгу
An award-winning cozy author "provides an abundance of . . . vividly detailed food, a veritable host of characters, and just a bit of froth" ( Library Journal).
Hollywood has come to town—and Faith Fairchild has to feed it! Hired to cater meals for the movie crew that is filming a modern-day version of The Scarlet Letter in the tiny New England village of Aleford, Faith is eager to treat the talented tantrum-throwers to the best of her culinary delights.
But an accusation that her famous Black Bean Soup is poison has left a bad taste in Faith's mouth. Her exploration into the source of the nasty slander leads the amateur investigator behind the scenes to a shocking off-camera murder. And suddenly more than Faith's reputation is at stake—her life itself could end up on the cutting room floor
"Sprightly, with a light dusting of satire." — Kirkus Reviews
"A New England ambience that's irresistable." — The Hartford Courant
"If you enjoy a lively read, you're sure to like The Body in the Cast. The story really sparkles." — Romantic Times Magazine
"Spirited characterization and energetic plotting." — Publishers Weekly
"Readers will find treasures aplenty in these fast-flying pages." — The Clarion-Ledger, Jackson, MS
