Tough Cookie

A deliciously deadly novel by the New York Times bestselling author of Prime Cut.

A surprisingly tart and savory reading experience. -The Washington Post Book World

When caterer Goldy Schulz is offered a temporary stint hosting a
cooking show for PBS, she jumps at the chance. After all, she could use the money-not to mention the great exposure. Plus taping the shows at Colorado’s posh Killdeer
Ski Resort will be fun. A little cooking, a little chitchat. What could go wrong?

The answer: everything! When Goldy has to do one of her shows live for a PBS telethon,
the broadcast is riddled with culinary catastrophes-from the Chesapeake Crab Cakes
right down to the Ice-Capped Gingersnaps. But the deadliest dish of all comes after
the cameras go off-and a baffling accident claims a life. Then a series of suspicious
mishaps places Goldy’s own life in jeopardy, and she knows she’d better whip up her
own crime-solving recipe, and fast-before a deadly dash of danger ends her cooking
career once and for all… .
