Wedding Soup Murder: An Italian Kitchen Mystery Book 2 The

Product Description

Victoria Rienzi came home to the Jersey Shore to write a new book, learn the family restaurant business, and practice the fine art of Italian cooking. But when delicious dishes are paired with murder, Vic has a little too much on her plate . . .

When Vic asked her nonna for more responsibility in the kitchen, she didn't mean forming a thousand tiny meatballs by hand for the family's famous wedding soup. The dish is to be served at the reception for a close family friend at the exclusive Belmont Country Club. And once there Vic has to deal with a demanding bridezilla and clashes in the kitchen - between the staff and servers, between two egocentric head chefs, and between the country club president and . . . well . . . everyone.

The wedding comes off without a hitch - until the body of the club's president is found on the beach below a high seawall. Now Vic will need to use her noodle to find out who pushed whom too far . . . before she's the one who lands in the soup!

Includes recipes.
