Beschreibung
The first book in a new culinary cozy series full of sharp humor and delectable dishes-one that might just be killer....

When Lila Macapagal moves back home to recover from a horrible breakup, her life seems to be following all the typical rom-com tropes. She's tasked with saving her Tita Rosie's failing restaurant, and she has to deal with a group of matchmaking aunties who shower her with love and judgment. But when a notoriously nasty food critic (who happens to be her ex-boyfriend) drops dead moments after a confrontation with Lila, her life quickly swerves from a Nora Ephron romp to an Agatha Christie case.

With the cops treating her like she's the one and only suspect, and the shady landlord looking to finally kick the Macapagal family out and resell the storefront, Lila's left with no choice but to conduct her own investigation. Armed with the nosy auntie network, her barista best bud, and her trusted Dachshund, Longanisa, Lila takes on this tasty, twisted case and soon finds her own neck on the chopping block…

Zusammenfassung
#OWNVOICES COZY MYSTERY that features a Filipino heroine and her quirky relatives

FOOD-ORIENTED COZY: Results from a recent PRH survey (2020) showed that readers want more culinary cozies, so this is a perfect addition to our list, and we even have recipes of delicious Filipino food in the back of the novel

ACQUIRED AT AUCTION: We won three books in this new series and are committed to the author

UPDATED TAKE ON THE CLASSIC COZY FOR A MILLENNIAL AUDIENCE: Written with a modern voice, the story has a slight rom-com feel and the heroine is in her mid-twenties. We are also publishing in trade to distuingish it from the typical mass-market cozy
