What do you get when you mix a chef, a rival café, and a murder? A mystery with a delicious twist!
The death of James Templeton Brockley the third is bad news - and not just for Brockley!
Mugsy's Café is struggling. A new place in town has been gobbling up customers faster than you can say "cappuccino." But is it the new café, or are Porkington's tired old recipes the problem?
Porkington's timely invitation to cook for Mr. Brockley and "The Guild" might just keep Mugsy's afloat. And maybe the famous Chef Lorenzo will help him fine-tune his recipes. Or maybe not!
When Brockley is found dead under suspicious circumstances before the dinner can even take place, Porkington must sift through the mélange of suspects for clues to the crime. He's a better cook than detective, but he's determined to solve the mystery. After all, Mugsy's Café is at stake!
