Hollywood has come to town -- and Faith Fairchild has to feed it! Hired to cater meals for the movie crew that is filming a modernday version of The Scarlet Letter in the tiny New England village of Aleford, Faith is eager to treat the talented tantrum-throwers to the best of her culinary delights. But an accusation that her famous Black Bean Soup is poison has left a bad taste in Faith's mouth. Her exploration into the source of the nasty slander leads the amateur investigator behind the scenes to a shocking off-camera murder. And suddenly more than Faith's reputation is at stake -- her life itself could end up on the cutting room floor.
A movie set, black bean soup, and a local election
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
A movie-making crew arrives in Aleford and suddenly the little town is caught up in show business. Added to this, a hotly-contested 3-way local election is being held. Faith Fairchild is asked to cater for the movie crew and to work on one of the candidate's campaigns. This puts her right in the middle of a murder of one of the actresses and one of the candidates. Her long-suffering minister husband urges her to let the police solve the murders, but as usual Faith decides to help the lawmen along with her own investigation. This is pretty standard stuff for this series and makes for entertaining reading.
