National bestselling author Lucy Burdette’s intrepid food critic Hayley Snow must sniff out a killer in the ninth Key West Food Critic mystery.
Key West food critic Hayley Snow scents-es something fishy when a customer falls stone-crab cold dead on a seafood tasting tour.
Thanksgiving is nearly here, and Key West food critic Hayley Snow has just one more assignment to put to bed for Key Zest magazine before she gets to celebrate with her family and her police officer fiancé, Nathan Bransford. Then, just days later, wedding bells will ring—if death doesn’t toll first.
The sweet potatoes and stuffing will have to wait when Hayley picks up a distraught phone call from her friend, Analise Smith. On the last stop of a seafood tasting tour run by Analise, one of the customers collapsed—dead. With the police on the verge of shutting down the tour—and ruining Analise’s business—Hayley can hardly refuse her friend’s entreaties to investigate.
As if wedding jitters and family strife weren’t enough for Hayley to worry about, there’s crusty pastry chef Martha Hubbard, whose key lime pie may have been the murder weapon—but did she poison her own pie or was she framed? As the hours to Turkey Day tick away, the pressure cooker is on for Hayley to serve up the culprit on a silver platter in A Deadly Feast, national bestselling author Lucy Burdette’s taste-tempting ninth Key West Food Critic mystery.

      In Burdette’s delicious ninth mystery featuring Key West, Fla., food critic Haley Snow (after 2018’s Death on the Menu), Haley is busy preparing for her wedding to police detective Nathan Bransford. Meanwhile, she must make time to do her job, which includes participating in a seafood walking tour organized by her friend Analise Smith. The group, composed mainly of tourists, visits a series of eateries and a brewery, and gets to know each other over fish tacos and conch salad. At the last stop, one of the participants dies, apparently of food poisoning. Analise laments that this unfortunate occurrence could not only destroy her business but also ruin the reputation of every restaurant on the tour. Haley adds investigating the death to her already full plate. Recipes for many of the tantalizing dishes mentioned in the text, including Mojito Cookies and Decadent Lobster Macaroni and Cheese, appear at the end. The slight mystery element won’t bother food-loving fans who have bonded with the effervescent Haley. Agent: Paige Wheeler, CMA Literary.

      As Key West food critic Hayley Snow prepares for Thanksgiving and her wedding, she participates in a food-tasting tour organized by her friend Analise. After one of the participants collapses and dies at the last stop on the tour, Analise and the participating chefs ask for Hayley's help in talking to the victim's family and other tour guests to determine what happened. If the food actually caused a guest to die, the restaurants and Analise could be out of business. Meanwhile, wedding preparations keep Hayley hopping, especially as her fianc�, Detective Nathan Bransford, seems to be tied up with a case, prompting Hayley to wonder how she will handle being the wife of a cop. Hayley and Nathan make an appealing pair, and the food descriptions and Key West atmosphere are equally enticing?a sure bet to draw readers of foodie mysteries.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2019, American Library Association.)
