In Barcelona, the tapas are sizzling, the streets are bright... and revenge may be the spiciest dish on the menu.
Charlie Mercier came to Barcelona for sunshine, food and a little professional curiosity. As a food critic with a talent for trouble, she expected colourful markets, lively terraces, secret recipes and enough tapas to make the trip worthwhile.
She did not expect her ex-husband, a celebrity chef, to die in the middle of a culinary festival.
And she certainly did not expect to become the prime suspect.
Accident? Jealousy? Family vendetta? Or murder, carefully prepared and served with a side of Spanish flair?
With Monsieur B., her sharp-eyed ginger cat with far too much attitude, and Victor, a private investigator as clever as he is dangerously distracting, Charlie dives into a world of rival chefs, hidden grudges, secret recipes and spicy revenge.
As Barcelona's sunny streets begin to reveal darker secrets, Charlie must clear her name, uncover the truth and find out who turned a gourmet celebration into a crime scene.
Light-hearted, witty and full of Mediterranean flavour, this fourth book in the Murder à la Carte series is perfect for readers who love cosy mysteries, amateur female sleuths, culinary crimes, charming European settings, slow-simmering romance and one very judgmental cat.
Each book in the series can be read as a standalone mystery, with recurring characters, evolving relationships and a new delicious destination in every adventure.
Discover Murder in Barcelona: Tapas or Trap? today and join Charlie Mercier in a sunny, funny and deliciously suspicious investigation where the tapas are hot, the suspects are hotter... and the clues may be hiding in plain sight.
