The Body in the Cast

Summary

An award-winning cozy author “provides an abundance of . . . vividly detailed food, a veritable host of characters, and just a bit of froth” (Library Journal).

Hollywood has come to town—and Faith Fairchild has to feed it! Hired to cater meals for the movie crew that is filming a modern-day version of The Scarlet Letter in the tiny New England village of Aleford, Faith is eager to treat the talented tantrum-throwers to the best of her culinary delights.

But an accusation that her famous Black Bean Soup is poison has left a bad taste in Faith’s mouth. Her exploration into the source of the nasty slander leads the amateur investigator behind the scenes to a shocking off-camera murder. And suddenly more than Faith’s reputation is at stake—her life itself could end up on the cutting room floor.
