Adding to her funk is an opinionated mother-in-law and a husband rekindling a friendship with his ex. Gracias to her best friend, Alma, she gets a short-term job as a Caribbean cooking expert on a Spanish-language morning TV show. But when the newly minted star attends a Women's Club luncheon, a socialite sitting at her table suddenly falls face-first into the chicken salad, never to nibble again. When a second woman dies soon after, suspicions coalesce around a controversial Cuban herbalist, Dr. Fuentes--especially after the morning show's host collapses while interviewing him. Detective Pullman is not happy to find Miriam at every turn. After he catches her breaking into the doctor's apothecary, he enlists her help as eyes and ears to the places he can't access, namely the Spanish-speaking community and the tawny Coral Shores social scene. As the ingredients to the deadly scheme begin blending together, Miriam is on the verge of learning how and why the women died. But her snooping may turn out to be a recipe for her own murder"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Cuban Americans $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $x Investigation $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Television cooking shows $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Miami (Fla.) $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Large type books. 655 7 $a Cozy mysteries. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 800 1 $a Reyes, Raquel V. $t Caribbean kitchen mystery. 830 0 $a Thorndike large print mystery series. 941 $a 6 945 $a lpt 952 $l GOPG641 $d 20240514011038.0 952 $l BJPD251 $d 20240223010435.0 952 $l SMPE094 $d 20240104021057.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012011228.0 952 $l RNPC397 $d 20230805012501.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220318010238.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B6B1F744A68011EC81502DCE2FECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
