A bright new talent makes her fiction debut with this first entry in a delicious crime set in rural South Africa–a flavorful blend of The #1 Ladies Detective Agency and Goldie Schulz series, full of humor, romance, and recipes and featuring a charming cast of characters.

Tannie Maria (Tannie meaning Auntie, the respectful Afrikaans address for a woman older than you) is a middle-aged widow who likes to cook–and eat.

Tannie Maria doesn’t like the change, but soon discovers she has a knack–and a passion–for helping people. Of course she shares her recipes and culinary advice whenever she can!

When the woman is murdered, Tannie Maria becomes dangerously entwined in the investigation, despite the best efforts of one striking detective determined to keep her safe. Suddenly, this practical, down-to-earth woman is involved in something much more sinister than perfecting her chocolate cake recipe …
