Readers first met Cassie Doolin in Land of the Blind, author Perri Nash’s first novel featuring the amateur sleuth. A former securities trader with several investment management firms, Cassie gave up her lucrative financial career after the murders of two of her colleagues. Death is a Dish Best Served Cold finds her pursuing her creative ambitions as a chef-in-training with one of Washington’s most sought-after caterers. During a sumptuous dinner at the embassy of St. Denis, Cassie notices a strange man mingling among the kitchen staff. She thinks little of it, seeing as she’s thoroughly preoccupied with cooking, managing the staff, and keeping temperamental executive chef Stephan Matthews under control.
Just hours after the embassy event, Cassie and her husband, Washington Metropolitan Police detective John Doolin, are enjoying a late-night dinner for two when news leaks that dozens of the party guests have been admitted to area hospitals. Among them is the vice president, a victim of what appears to be food poisoning…but is actually an attempt on his life. Belatedly realizing that she had seen the would-be assassin at the embassy, Cassie joins John to investigate the case. Together they uncover an intricate web of blackmail, theft, diplomatic intrigue, and murder that leads them from the highest circles of Washington to a tiny island in the Caribbean and beyond.
