About the book
For the first time ever, event planner Sophie Winston finds herself in the role of a guest at a luxurious engagement party. However, things take a terrifying turn when the groom-to-be is poisoned and dies...
In an unlikely pairing in Old Town Alexandria, Natasha Smith's carefree mother, Wanda, is set to marry antiques dealer Orson Chatsworth. As the wedding planner, Natasha must organize the entire event starting with a fancy engagement party. She decides to go all out and splurge on trendy food boards created by Orson's daughter, the up-and-coming media sensation Stella St. James. Stella impresses the guests with her visually stunning butter boards, dessert boards, and even doughnut boards that go above and beyond the typical cheese and cracker spread. The food is a hit until tragedy strikes.
Initially thought to be a heart attack, it is soon revealed that Orson was poisoned, casting suspicion on Stella's gourmet creations. With a large number of attendees, the list of potential suspects is extensive. Could the killer be a scorned lover, a greedy family member, or a resentful former business partner? As even Sophie comes under scrutiny, she knows it's time to roll up her sleeves and conduct her own investigation before murder becomes the newest trend in town.
