The irresistible debut novel from celebrity TV chef Rosemary Shrager where cosy crime and cookery collide!

When an old television rival Deirdre Shaw is found dead at the Cotswolds manor house where she was catering for a prestigious shooting weekend Prudence is asked to step into the breach. Prudence is only too happy to take up the position and soon she is working in the kitchens of Farleigh Manor.

But Farleigh Manor is the home to secrets both old and new. The site of a famous unsolved murder from the nineteenth century Farleigh Manor has never quite shaken off its sensationalist past. It's about to get a sensational present too. Because the more she scratches beneath the surface of this manor and its guests the more Prudence becomes certain that Deirdre Shaw's death was no accident. She's staring in the face of a very modern murder. . .
