Death of a Mystery Guest

Zusatztext

Readers love the Old Forge Café mysteries! 'Another excellent addition to this superb series' ¿¿¿¿¿ Real reader review Charlie Hunter does not like Christmas, especially the lead into it -- cooking endless servings of Christmas dinner. So when she is asked by Graeme Strickland, Michelin-starred chef, egomaniac and friend, to help out in a hotel restaurant in Edinburgh's New Town, for a fortnight, she accepts with alacrity. The Head Chef, David Jenkins, is a very old friend of Strickland's, and the job entails covering temporarily for a sous chef position, while Strickland provides cover for Charlie, gratis, in the Old Forge Café. She is scheduled to be there for a fortnight. But Charlie arrives in Edinburgh just in time to discover David Jenkins being stretchered out. An autopsy reveals the Chef has been poisoned with mushrooms. Was it an accident or a murder attempt? It looks like Charlie may be doing a rather different job¿
