When Laurent gets word that his friend Antoine Dubois, head chef at a top culinary bistro in Toulouse was brutally murdered on the opening day of the city's famous Merguez Sausage Festival, he drives to Toulouse, determined to find the killer.
As Laurent interrogates staff and rival chefs, it becomes clear that more than reputations are at stake. When Maggie joins her husband in Toulouse to help in any way she can, she quickly vanishes without a trace and Laurent is told to stop looking for his friend's killer or she will die.
Maggie's job now is to stay alive and try to leave a trail of breadcrumbs for Laurent to follow. Working with the Toulouse police, Laurent must find Maggie in the treacherous Pyrenees mountains before it's too late. To do that he will have to outwit two cunning killers--Antoine's killer and the ones who kidnapped Maggie and who will stop at nothing to keep their crimes buried?including killing her.
In this edge-of-your-seat mystery infused with the rich culture and cuisine of southern France, Maggie will once more risk everything during a pulse-pounding game of cat and mouse high in the French alps.
This book is a clean read with no graphic violence, sex or strong language.
Genre: culinary mystery, women amateur sleuth.
