Goldy Shulz has a lucrative new gig preparing breakfasts and conference room snacks for a local law firm. It's time-consuming, but Goldy is enjoying it - until the night she arrives to find the firm's paralegal - Goldy's friend and neighbor - dead. And now her grieving mother begs Goldy to find out who murdered her daughter. Just because the police are on the case doesn't mean Goldy can't do a little snooping (and catering) too. Before long, Goldy is knee-deep in suspects, one of whom is very dangerous and very liable to cook Goldy's goose.

This is the first book I have read by this author and I am now hooked. If you love cooking and/or food and you enjoy good fiction writing, you will definitely enjoy this series.

I have loved the Goldy mysteries up to this point, but I couldn't even finish this one. I felt like someone else wrote the book...the dialogue was stilted and everything felt very forced.

Another Goldy mystery with good recipes. Somewhat of a surprise as to the killer.

Again Diane Mott Davidson hits it with a who dunit that keeps you involved.
Murder hits close to home this time.
I really enjoyed reading this and found I couldn't put it down. I read while I cooked. And I find myself hungry when I read her books.
Great recieps to follow at the end. You must try some of these.

This book was fun and a part of the Goldy Shulz collection. I read the first one Dying for Chocolate and this one. This has several other books in-between the Dying for Chocolate and Dark Tort but the characters are on-going with Goldy married again and things have happened to her ex and her family since the first book. This was suspenseful and a quick read with the recipes at the back instead of in each chapter like Dying for Chocolate. I think these are as fun as the Janet Evanovich series.

Most recent by Diane Mott Davidson-2007 paperback! And one of her best!!!Goldy Schultz caters breakfast to a local law firm and finds to her horror that her neighbor and friend, a paralegal for the law firm, has been killed! This is a great cozy mystery in which Goldy, as usual, has to help her husband Tom, who happens to be with the sheriff's department, solve this case!! I could not quit reading until I finished this one!!
