Lynda Allen's debut mystery FLASHES OF INSIGHT hooked me from the beginning. I wish I could share more about the plot, but I don't want to give anything away about her ingenious way of creating and solving the puzzle. Just trust me when I say her originality and creativity is delightful! I can definitely share that Liv is a strong woman with a really creative voice. Be warned that this is a "Jersey" cozy, as Liv hails from there, and her perimenopausal self can take over with some strong language and hysterical comments. Personally I found her truly relatable. I also loved exploring the charming town and rich history of Fredericksburg, Virginia, making me want to head down there soon for a weekend trip. But even if you can't, you'll get a great vicarious trip.

In this delectable debut mystery, former attorney Claire trades courtrooms for kitchens, hoping to whip up a new life as a private chef. But when she returns to California with an unexpected French accent—a peculiar souvenir from a traumatic bombing in DC—she finds herself embroiled in a case more complex than any bouillabaisse.

Catering her best friend's wedding at a lavish mansion should have been the perfect fresh start. Instead, it becomes a recipe for disaster when the host—a contestant on a cutthroat fashion reality show—is found dead. With the authorities floundering, it's up to Claire to unravel this couture crime.

Can she sift through the clues, outsmart the suspects, and serve justice before the killer strikes again? In 'Threads of Deception,' Elle Jauffret stitches together a mouth-watering mystery that will leave readers hungry for more!
