Celebrity chef turned sleuth Billy Blessing finds his plate full of danger once again, as secrets from his long-buried past threaten to make a comeback. Before Billy had his five-star restaurant in New York, before he was tapped to co-host the morning show Wake Up, America! and travel with it for a week in the Windy City--before he even assumed the name Billy Blessing --he lived a totally different life under a very different identity: as wily con man Billy Blanchard. Caught trying to run a scam on a shady Detroit businessman, Billy did time for his crimes, reinvented himself, and has successfully kept that part of his past covered up ever since. But when he and Eddie Patton, a nosy ex-cop with a long memory, are guests on a popular Chicago TV talk show, the off-camera chat turns to blackmail. And Billy may have no choice but to pay up or see the embarrassing truth from being blogcast to the world on Patton's true crime website. This being Chicago, secrets have a way of getting out--and getting people killed. When Patton winds up dead in his apartment only hours after trying to shake Billy down, it's just the first in a string of killings that has America's most beloved TV host scrambling for clues, unsure who his friends are, and desperate to clear his name before he becomes the media's latest poster child for celebrity scandal. Throw in a budding romance with a visiting movie star and Billy Blessing may have finally gotten himself into one sticky situation even he can't talk his way out of. Fast-paced, funny, and bubbling over with inside scoop on the business they call show, The Talk Show Murders is Al Roker mystery fiction at its delicious, dishy best"--|cProvided by publisher. 650 0 Blessing, Billy (Fictitious character)|vFiction. 650 0 Television personalities|vFiction. 650 0 Celebrity chefs|vFiction. 650 0 Ex-convicts|vFiction. 650 0 Extortion|vFiction. 650 0 Murder|vFiction. 650 7 Blessing, Billy (Fictitious character)|2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01777469 650 7 Celebrity chefs.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01748565 650 7 Ex-convicts.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00917418 650 7 Extortion.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00918984 650 7 Murder.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01029781 650 7 Television personalities.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01146966 655 0 Electronic books. 655 7 Detective and mystery fiction.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01726581 655 7 Fiction.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 Mystery fiction.|2gsafd 655 7 Detective and mystery fiction.|2lcgft 700 1 Lochte, Dick. 914 45C0C931-4FFC-4F73-8601-C8CA155602AD 994 C0|bCKE
