Diane Mott Davidson, author of the best-selling culinary mystery series, once again successfully melds a robust murder mystery with a collection of fine gourmet recipes. In Killer Pancake, amateur sleuth Goldy faces her toughest challenge yet. While catering a cosmetics company luncheon, Goldy witnesses the hit and run death of a rising young sales associate.
A wickedly delicious mystery--complete with recipes--from the bestselling author of Dying for Chocolate. The College Advisory Dinner seemed harmless enough to Aspen Meadow's premier caterer, Goldy Bear. But when she discovers the main course for the evening is murder, Goldy is hungry for answers.
Meet Goldy Bear, a caterer with more than just the dirty dishes to worry about! She's bright, opinionated and wildly inventive cook with a personal life that is a recipe for disaster. Threats from her abusive ex-husband and mounting bills force Goldy to take control of her life - so she accepts a job as a live-in-chef looking after the cream of Aspen Meadow's society. But as it starts to look as though things are on the up for Goldy, her boyfriend Philip is killed in a car crash.
Goldy's father-in-law is almost killed by a poisoned cup of coffee at an affair she has catered, closing down her business and sending her on the trail of someone intent on revenge.
There may be no more iconic American brand than Harley-Davidson. But like many storied companies, Harley has had to evolve to stay on top and at times its very existence has been threatened. Practically extinct in the mid-1980's, the company began a miraculous turnaround centered on a product development and manufacturing revolution. With dramatic improvements in efficiency and bottom-line results, Harley returned to dominance. At the core of this incredible story was author Dantar Oosterwal, who brings the transformation of Harley-Davidson to life in "The Lean Machine".
