Spotlight - The Seven Course Christmas Killer

Today I'd like to shine a spotlight on The Seven Course Christmas Killer: A Holiday Novella from the Italian Kitchen by Rosie Genova. Rosie is self publishing this novella as an e-book. Sadly, Rosie's Italian Kitchen Mystery series was one of the many wonderful cozy series cancelled by Penguin Random House.

 

SYNOPSIS:

On Christmas Eve, someone might be sleeping with the fishes . . .

It’s December at the Casa Lido, which means only one thing: the Rienzi family’s traditional Christmas Eve celebration, including wine, song, and seven Italian seafood courses. As Victoria and Tim prep scungilli and calamari, Nonna directs the cooking until all is in readiness for the big night.

But the holiday cheer is interrupted by the attempted murder of Mayor Anne McCrae, who asks Vic to investigate. Trouble is, there are as many suspects as there are fishes on the Christmas Eve menu . . .

“The tastiest item on the menu with colorful characters, a sharp plot, and a fabulous Jersey setting. I enjoyed every bite.” —New York Times bestselling author Jenn McKinlay on Murder and Marinara
