Fall festivities are underway in Coral Shores, Miami. Cuban-American cooking show star Miriam Qui?nes-Smith wakes up to find a corpse in her front yard. The body by the fake tombstone is the woman that was kicked out of the schools Fall Festival the day before.
Miriams luck does not improve. Her passive-aggressive mother-in-law puts her in charge of the Womens Club annual gala. But this year, its not canapes and waltzes. Miriam and her girlfriends-squad opt for fun and flavor. They want to spice it up with Caribbean food trucks and a calypso band. While making plans at the country club, they hear a volatile argument between the new head chef and the clubs manager. Not long after, the chef swan dives to his death at the bottom of the grand staircase.
Was it an accident? Or was it Beverly, the sous chef, who is furious after being passed over for the job? Or maybe it was his ex-girlfriend, Anastasia?
Add two possible poisonings to the mix and Miriam is worried the food truck fun is going to be a major crash. As the clock ticks down and the body count goes up, Miriams life is put in jeopardy. Will she connect the dots or die in the deep freeze? Foodies and mystery lovers alike will savor the denouement as the truth is laid bare in this simmering stew of rage, retribution, and murder.
