New on the Mystery Bookshelf during April 2016 …
Silence of the Lamps by Karen Rose Smith, A Caprice De Luca, Home Stager Mystery (5th in series)
Publisher: Kensington
Click here to take a Look Inside Silence of the Lamps.
Caprice's house staging is disrupted by Drew Pierson, a caterer who opened Portable Edibles, a business in direct competition with her sister Nikki's Catered Capers. Nikki turned down Drew as a possible partner and he seems determined to undermine and bury her. However his successful launch of a deal for his blackberry barbecue sauce must have stirred up his enemies. When Nikki visits the house where Drew lives with his grandmother to resolve differences, she and Caprice find him dead — murdered with the base of a valuable Tiffany lamp.
Caprice discovers clues about Drew's sly business dealings — from stealing recipes from another chef, to friends who hold grudges, to a sister who will now inherit half of her grandmother's estate since Drew is dead. In the midst of her own romantic relationship upheaval, helping her uncle set up his pet sitting-business, assisting a friend care for a pregnant stray cat, Caprice follows the suspect trail, inadvertently putting herself in danger once more.
