Getting Rich (A Chef Landry Mystery)

Getting Rich
By Monique Domovitch

Book two of A Chef Landry Mystery

Chef Nicky Landry is more than co-owner of Skinny’s; she’s the low-cal eatery’s #1 success story. (According to the billboards, anyway. She’s gained most of the weight back...shh!) Now Nicky and her business partner, Toni, will be on national TV. They’ll be rich. And famous! Which is great, though Nicky would
really
prefer if people didn’t recognize her when she hits the fast-food shack.

Then one night a deranged woman threatens to kill her. The next thing Nicky knows, a crazy driver mistakes her for a speed bump, her boyfriend is acting strangely, Toni acquires a long-lost sister, and a mysterious fire at Skinny’s leaves one dead.

 

Murder and mayhem weren’t supposed to be on the menu. So Nicky and Toni start following clues, only to discover that people can be as deceiving as calorie counts, and danger is often closer than you think.

Dear Reader,

I’m on vacation, camping in the semi-wilderness. No, not when you’re reading this (well, maybe, who knows?) but when this letter is due to our production team. So I’ve chosen to hand off my Dear Reader letter responsibilities to the team for the month of November and let them tell you all about the fantastic lineup in store for you. We’re a team who really enjoys the books we acquire, and I know they’ll be glad for a chance to convince you to give one a try. In the meantime, I’ll be back next month. Happy reading!

Angela James, Editorial Director

Dear Reader,

Editorial assistant Stephanie here. Since Angela is “camping” (all I’m saying is that camping seems to involve a lot of tweeting), I’ve compiled a few fun facts about this month’s new releases. What kinds of great books do we have in store for you this time? Will I get in trouble for making fun of my boss’s camping skills? These are the questions I will strive to answer for you today.
