Murder most delicious : a novel / Danielle Postel-Vinay.
"Starting over in Paris was supposed to be the opportunity of a lifetime for American sommelier Olivia Beech--until her dream job ends in murder. Once a rising star in the wine world, Olivia was one of a handful of women in the world to hold the distinction of being a Master Sommelier before COVID stole her sense of taste--and her career. Adrift and depressed, she gets a second chance when beloved celebrity chef Jacques de Bizet invites her to Paris for a job interview. But as the interview begins, he collapses, poisoned, making Olivia the prime suspect. Olivia is in trouble, but she has an advantage: her extraordinary nose is still sharp enough to detect the subtlest of scents, including the poison that killed Jacques. Olivia knows she's innocent, but how can she prove it? Enter the Paris Neighborhood Watch, an eccentric circle of locals determined to protect their quartier. At the helm is the mysterious Augusta Dupin, a brilliant but agoraphobic detective, aided by her intuitive British shorthair cat, Chateaubriand. Olivia and Augusta join forces with a group of neighborhood amateur sleuths--a pâtissier, a café owner, a part-time librarian, a florist and a kind-hearted cop who may be falling for Olivia--to solve the crime, a search that helps them find not only the killer but fresh purpose in their lives."-- From back cover.
