Book Description:
A MEAL TO DIE FOR

With the kids packed off on their summer road trips, it's an ideal time for Jane Jeffry to pursue other interests, so the harried suburban mom enrolls in a writing course at the community college. But when an obnoxious aged classmate keels over dead after sampling a tasty treat from a pot luck student buffet, Jane realizes there's a culinary killer among the local would-be literati.

The pen may be mightier than the sword, but poison beats them both. And before the demise of a very disagreeable old biddy can be written off, amateur sleuth Jane intends to find out who's responsible -- and cook the culprit's goose in his or her own creative juices.

This series is sort of fun. I was waiting for the first book to get started, but when it didn't arrive started with this one and was able to pick up the storyline just fine. Cute mystery, if a little predictable. Nice beach book.

Death at the writing classes' potluck supper. Jane Jeffrys to the rescue. I liked the book. The person who signed the inside cover critiqued it as "so-so."

I love this series, but this book wasn't my favorite. It started out kind of slow, but did manage to pick up eventually.
