All Simona wants is a few weeks in the sun along the Long Island coastline. But vacation fun quickly turns to foul play when her neighbor and friend, New York advertising mogul Bud Warren, is found floating in the inlet behind his beach house. Now, as the summer heat wave intensifies and brush fires break out across the Hamptons, Simona finds herself caught up in her most terrifying murder case yet--one that includes corporate corruption, madness, and forbidden family secrets.

Simona Griffo--the Italian-born, New York-based food and murder expert--is worried about losing her soft creative job at her ad agency, of being pushed upstairs with "the Living Dead, account executives who get to work at 8 a.m. in ironed suits and crisp hair, trailing antiseptic deodorant smells. I thrive in the late-starting, garlic-breath, T-shirt-and-jeans department." She certainly does. Simona's latest misadventure takes her cooking and crime-solving skills into the world of high fashion, where one of Griffo's clients is in danger of losing her company and her freedom. As usual, there's a great-looking recipe at the end of the book--this time for something called Shmatta Pasta, which I'm making tonight. Past Griffo gourmandizings in paperback include The Trouble With Going Home, The Trouble with Thin Ice, and The Trouble With a Hot Summer.
Camilla T. Crespi delivers her best mystery yet, in which Italian sleuth and gourmet cook Simona Griffo must solve a murder in the heart of New York City's fashion world.
