  <default_description>MEET THE CATERER WHO WHIPPED UP THE MULTIMILLION-COPY MYSTERY SERIES, AS GOLDY SOLVES HER FIRST MURDER!

Diane Mott Davidson's winning recipe of first-class suspense and five-star fare has won her and caterer Goldy critical raves and a regular place on major bestseller lists across the country. In Goldy's tantalizing debut, she serves up a savory dish of secrets, suspicions, and murder....

INCLUDING NEVER-BEFORE-PUBLISHED RECIPES

Catering a wake is not Goldy's idea of fun. Yet the Colorado caterer throws herself into preparing a savory feast including Poached Salmon and Strawberry Shortcake Buffet designed to soothe forty mourners. And her culinary efforts seem to be exactly what the doctor ordered...until her ex-father-in-law gynecologist Fritz Korman is struck down and Goldy is accused of adding poison to the menu. Now, with the Department of Health impounding her leftovers, her ex-husband proclaiming her guilt, and her business about to be shut down, Goldy knows she can't wait for the police to serve up the answers. She'll soon uncover more than one family skeleton and a veritable stew of unpalatable secrets -- the kind that could make Goldy the main course in an unsavory killer's next murder!</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[ I can't decide on two or three stars for this book. While it was interesting and readable I didn't really like any of the characters. Goldy is very pushy when questioning her friends and neighbors. I think a bit more subtlety could have gotten her further. She also seems more concerned with her bus...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/57599619">more...</a>]]></body>

In fact, the oddest book I’ve read in quite a while and my tenacity to see if it became a better book along with it being the current selection for my face-to-face mystery group compelled me to read just anoth...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/27557390">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I finished another cozy mystery this morning. This time it was Diane Mott Davidson’s Catering to Nobody. <br/><br/>In this first story of the series Goldy’s business is closed down when her ex father in law is poisoned on the wake of her son’s teacher.

    <body><![CDATA[I have a few friends who keep telling me that they read these books religiously and I should pick them up. Some have even tried the recipes inside. I guess these books would be more interesting to the stay-at-home mom, or at least any woman that knows how to cook. That's just not me, but I did enjoy...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/27190526">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I am generally pretty willing to overlook bad writing and a mediocre plot when it comes to culinary mysteries, and this series is no exception. If I read the same novel without the food angle, I would give a scathing review and probably wouldn't have even finished it. But food...it always draws me i...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/39389961">more...</a>]]></body>
