Publisher's summary

As the owner of Mahalia’s Sweet Tea, Halia Watkins is famous in Maryland’s Prince George’s County for her down-home cuisine. But when she has the chance to showcase her talents on national TV, she becomes the star of a murder mystery that’s too hot to handle!

When Halia is invited to serve as a guest judge on the popular cooking competition show Elite Chef, she’s delighted to add some extra flavor to the mix. But as filming ramps up in Washington D.C., there are too many fiery personalities in the kitchen. Halia discovers that pulling off her small screen debut unscathed means contending with a longtime competing restaurant owner, an infamously crass hospitality mogul, and a group of cutthroat contestants vying for culinary glory....

The competition sizzles with only a few finalists left standing - and goes cold when the gorgeous young frontrunner is found dead. As murder accusations are slathered over a recently eliminated contestant, Halia, with some bungling assistance from her wise-cracking cousin Wavonne slides into an investigation of their own. A little snooping reveals the victim burned lots of bridges, leaving a slew of alleged affairs and stolen recipes in her wake. With a fast-rising list of potential suspects, Halia must sort through mindboggling clues to fry the flaky culprit before someone else gets baked to a crisp....

little slow

it took a long time to get to the good part. throughout the story I kind of knew who was going to be the killer in sort of why she was and why she murdered her

Interesting Book that keeps the reader attention

i started this new series with a strong female character and an interesting cousin for comical effects. The characters are hsrd working women who run into people of varying backgrounds that lend themselves to someone getting killed. i personally wish the murder would take place soon in the book and there would be more time for investigation with the character development. i don't need to kno s much about the characters before I know who the victim will be. I read many thrillers and mysteries. The dialogue is very good and I plan to get all of the Audible Books on the series. The recipes sound great. I personally wish they were at the end of the book, but I will go back an write them down. especially that cornbread.

the characters where wonderful

new plot this was a bit better then the other one. a new twist a new characters in a weird way to die

Another great story in the series!

I really enjoy this series. The characters are fun and relatable. The author is great at building up the character and storyline. This is a different narrator than the previous story that I read, not necessarily a problem as she did a good job, I just prefer the other narrator. This worth the listen, another light murder mystery series.

i love these books

I loved this series. Hopefully more will come. Very full characters. The storyline was engrossing.

Spicy Mystery

Loved it! You can't stop listening! Love the characters! The narrator keeps you engaged.

Enjoy and laughter

The title-the style-the storytelling-the characters-the location and the recipes-the story lines and the theme

Great Book

Loved it, would recommend all of the books in this series to every one. Happy Reading 😊

very good!

This is the first A L Herbert and Hallia books I've listened to. (Accidentally started with book 3.)

Very good! The characters are intelligent and interesting. The pace of the story is good and the mystery was unpacked well. The narrator is excellent as well. I could always tell who was speaking and no one sounds ridiculous.

Ready to listen to the whole series.

Difficult suspect to figure out!

I loved all of these books! Murder mystery and killer recipes! How can you go wrong!!
