Recipe for Homicide

By Lawrence G. Blochman
Recipe for Homicide by Lawrence G. Blochman digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

After crowning a Carrot Queen—the fastest carrot peeler at the factory—the Barzac Soup Company is on a public relations roll under director Robert Gilmore. It plans to raise its profile—and stock price—even higher by introducing field rations for the US Army. But when an employee drops dead hours after tasting the field rations, Gilmore has a PR nightmare on his hands . . .   With his job on the line, Gilmore seeks the help of pathologist Dr. Daniel Webster Coffee, a man who enjoys good food as much as the unassailable practice of good medicine. But what he discovers raises the stakes: The victim died of arsenic poisoning. The rations could have been deliberately sabotaged as an act of war. As tensions reach a boiling point, Gilmore finds his past, his heart, and his life on the line . . .
