Death With Reservations

Michel’s cuisine is one of the Pennyfoot Hotel’s greatest attractions, drawing discerning guests from far and wide. But when Lord Sittingdon dies after eating the chef’s celebrated lobster salad, the hotel’s reputation—and Michel’s future—are placed in immediate jeopardy.

Cecily Sinclair fears that a tragic case of food poisoning could destroy everything she has built. Then troubling evidence suggests the aristocrat did not die by accident. Someone deliberately turned one of the Pennyfoot’s finest dishes into a deadly final course.

Scandal is nothing new at the notorious seaside hotel, where Edwardian nobles pursue illicit affairs, gamble behind closed doors, and trust the discreet downstairs staff to protect their secrets. A poisoned guest, however, is far harder to conceal—especially with Scotland Yard ready to close the establishment at the first opportunity.

To clear Michel’s name and save the Pennyfoot, Cecily must uncover who wanted Lord Sittingdon dead before suspicion ruins the hotel—or the killer serves up another victim.

A delicious culinary mystery filled with poisonous secrets, aristocratic suspects, grand-hotel intrigue, and a clever Edwardian sleuth.
