Book Description:
The CEO of a large pharmaceutical company has invited Carolyn Blue and her husband to the Big Apple for some serious wining and dining. But before she gets a chance to get a true taste of New York, the CEO is dead-keeled over after a heaping helping of pastrami. Talk about high cholesterol. Or was it high crime?
"Food columnist Carolyn Blue is a confident and witty detective with a taste for good food and an eye for murderous detail." (Earlene Fowler)

This was pretty good. It was amusing to see how the husband and wife both saw the same situation from different angles. However, I didn't really enjoy the way the author kept switching back and forth on points of view. It's all first person, but one chapter would be the wife's pov, the next chapter would be the husband's, then back to the wife, etc. Other than that, it was a pleasant, if somewhat predictable read.
After this and the first one, I'm gonna keep reading! Fun! And a mystery!
Food columnist Carolyn Blue travels to the Big Apple with her husband only to find herself immersed in yet another murder. Good reading and recipes.
Forty-something homemaker Carolyn Blue is through with cooking and cleaning. She's finally decided to throw in the distowel -- and take on a dream job as food writer. Now her plate is filled with exotic locales, delectable foods, and even a dash of crime -- to taste. Invited to New York with her husband, Carolyn is anxious to get a true taste of New York, but before she gets a chance to let the fun go to her head, her husband's prospective employer is dead -- keeled over after a heaping helping of pastrami.
I didn't enjoy this book as well as I did the first in the series. Hopefully it is just this book and I will enjoy the rest of the series.
