Book Description:
The Caterer
Meet Goldy Bear: a bright, opinionated, wildly inventive caterer whose personal life has become a recipe for disaster. She's got an abusive ex-husband who's into making tasteless threats, a rash of mounting bills that are taking a huge bite out of her budget, and two enticing men knocking on her door.
The Dish
Now determined to take control of her life, Goldy moves her business and her son to ritzy Aspen Meadow Country Club, where she accepts a job as a live-in cook. But just as she's beginning to think she's got it made--catering decadent dinners and posh society picnics and enjoying the favors of Philip Miller, a handsome local shrink, and Tom Shulz, her more-than-friendly neighborhood cop--the dishy doctor inexplicably drives his BMW into an oncoming bus.
The Unsavory Killer
Convinced that Philip's bizarre death was no accident, Goldy decides to do a little investigating of her own. But sifting through the unpalatable secrets of the dead doc's life will toss her into a case seasoned with unexpected danger and even more unexpected revelations--the kind that could get a caterer and the son she loves. . .killed.

A fun whodunit especially if you enjoy cooking/food.

Goldy the caterer #2.
Good book. I had to reread about 10 pages, twice, to figure out the murder. All the facts are jammed together all at once with a whole bunch of action, so it took the rereads to sort through all the loose ends.

Diane Mott Davidson's books are a fun read, and this is no exception. And, the recipes included sound so scrumptious - I alsways say that I will try one of them, but never have.

One of her early books, but every bit as good as the later ones.

2nd in the Goldy Bear series, a bit slow to start & still full of details and dialoge that is unneccesary, but interesting enough overall. Better than 'Catering to Nobody', the first in the series.

I adore culinary mysteries by Davidson. The way she describes chocolate melting in her mouth had me running to the store to buy a chocolate bar myself!! Great mystery with yummy recipes thrown in.

Second in an engaging series of mysteries featuring caterer Goldy Bear. Includes recipes.
a nice installment of the series--just as good as all the others, maybe a bit better.
Tissie R. from FINGERVILLE, SC wrote on 1/20/2007...With this mystery series you also get great recipes. A caterer who keeps finding bodies. But she makes great food.
I always enjoy the goldie mysteries & really like almost all the characters.
