New York Times bestseller Diane Mott Davidson is the darling of cozy mystery readers and dedicated foodies the world over. Davidson is really cooking with Double Shot, another tantalizing puzzle featuring her beloved protagonist, accomplished caterer and sleuth Goldy Schulz. Whipping up a rich soufflé of murder and mischief, Davidson has Goldy in a stew once again, when the reemergence of her psychopathic ex-husband and a murder that follows soon after brings chaos into her world. And, as always, many delicious recipes from Goldy's kitchen are featured as well.

Front Jacket

Now that her ultra-charming, seriously psychopathic ex-husband, Dr. John Richard Korman (aka the Jerk), has been prematurely released from prison, caterer supreme Goldy Schultz has more on her plate than she can handle. Perhaps the Jerk is the one who's trying to sabotage Goldy's latest culinary endeavor, a post-funeral reception for a friend at a local lodge. But as bad as the plethora of recent anonymous threats, rumors, and violence may be, it's Goldy's discovery of a fresh corpse that really spoils the stew. Here's a murder that threatens to tear her family to pieces . . . and virtually everyone believes Goldy committed it!

Though she's been quite efficiently framed, at least Goldy is still breathing. But that may not be the case for long if she can't track down a killer who's cooking up a very nasty repast for Goldy and the people she loves.
