One of Opera’s great sopranos is dead. Was it murder? If so, who killed her? The Roma? The jealous wife? The ruthless understudy? Or was it Emma’s tomato sauce? Newly residing in Blissburg, a quaint, wine country town north of San Francisco that caters to the rich and richer, amateur sleuth Emma Corsi has a week to solve the murder before her second career as a food writer is ruined. Her search entangles her with many of Blissburg’s quirky residents including a hunky Italian celebrity chef and an unlikely suitor named Jack Russo. In this first book of A. J. Carton’s new series, the Sonoma Wine Country Cozy Mysteries, Emma must confront a career change, the death of a close friend, and her turbulent relationship with her ambitious, outspoken daughter, Julie, who criticizes Emma’s beau as too sleazy and her wardrobe as too hippy for upscale Blissburg. Things only get worse when Emma becomes a homicide suspect, and Julie finds her successful PR firm threatened with extinction. Will Emma blow off a budding romance, or will she find the killer before she ends up in jail?
