1st in the Madeline Bean catering mysteries. Very well done, good plot, interesting main characters. I had read the 4th or 5th book in the series before this one, so it was nice to get a copy of this and find out the origins of the characters and get a clearer picture of where everybody was coming from.

Good book. When you put delicious food, handsome men and beautiful women together with murder and mystery, you've got to have a winner on your hands.
Madeline Bean, caterer to the stars, is in the middle of the biggest job of her career. She and her partner Wesley have pulled off Hollywood's most outrageous A-list Halloween party for notorious producer Bruno Huntley, complete with an eerie fortuneteller who is astonishingly accurate, and exotic food that's to die for. Before long, Bruno is thrashing and writhing out on the dance floor. just one problem: he's not standing up; And soon, he's not even breathing.
The newly late Mr. Huntley was presumed. that's certain. But the number of suspects with a yen to send Bruno to the devil could fill and audition for extras in the next Quentin Tarantino flick. When Westley is arrested for the murder because of a long-standing dispute with the maniacal mogul, Madeline knows he couldn't be guilty. But to prove it, she has to wade through the muck of a mudslinging family, outrun a pair of crazed canines, dodge a pair of well-aimed bullets and expose a slew of secrets that could put a soap opera to shame. Somebodys cooked up a murder, and it's up Madeline to find out who-- before she faces a fadeout of her own.
