Description

Caterer Goldy Schulz is counting on a smooth night of food and fun when she’s hired to host a hockey party in Aspen Meadow—until the evening turns grim. When Goldy’s ex’s glamorous new girlfriend, Suz Craig, is found dead in a ditch and her ex is arrested, Goldy must navigate small-town suspicion, shifting alliances, and a growing trail of clues. Blending mouthwatering recipes with sharp, character-driven mystery, this installment explores how reinvention, loyalty, and the stories people tell themselves can mask darker truths. Diane Mott Davidson’s signature cozy style—warm, witty, and suspenseful—keeps the focus on both the comforts of the table and the urgency of uncovering what really happened.
