Summary |
Margaritas, spicy guacamole and murder are among this year s preparations for Cinco de Mayo in the second Santa Fe Caf mystery novel. Tres Amigas Caf chef Rita Lafitte is busy baking her green chile souffl s and chocolate flans for Cinco de Mayo. If only her friend Linda, the daughter of Rita s octogenarian boss Flori, could get into the festive spirit. Linda s cart, Tia Tamales, is losing business to Crepe Empire, the hottest food cart in Santa Fe. Napoleon, Crepe Empire s owner, is a pompous, celebrity chef who wants to squeeze out the competition. But when Linda gets into a heated argument with Napoleon and his corpse is later found stabbed and pinned beneath the wheels of her tamale cart, she becomes the number one suspect. Determined to prove Linda s innocence, Rita investigates. From Napoleon s disgruntled former employees to a shady health inspector, the list of suspects is longer than Flori s strings of dried chili peppers. And when another corpse surfaces, Rita must scramble to find an elusive killer with an appetite for murder. |
