First dates have never been Rebecca Cuthbert’s forte, but when she stumbles upon a dead body during her romantic dinner with Detective Nick Devon at Citrus Grove’s hot new supper club, their special evening becomes a captivating murder mystery.
Things take an even curiouser turn when Aneksi, Rebecca’s immortal talking cat, sniffs out a connection between the social-influencer victim and an Egyptian artifact called the Osiris Spyglass. As Rebecca and Aneksi embark on a quest to retrieve her family’s heirloom, they uncover a labyrinth of intrigue and danger.
While Detective Nick questions the restaurant’s staff—including an irritable celebrity chef, a jilted lover, and a fame-seeking colleague—Rebecca cooks up her own clandestine investigation. Determined to crack the case and safeguard her newfound home from an ancient curse, she navigates the perilous situation with her trademark wit and boundless determination.
Will it be enough to unmask the killer and reclaim the lost treasure before she becomes the murderer’s second course?
Tuck into this delicious cozy mystery filled with quirky characters, clever clues, and the purr-fect blend of suspense and charm.
