Prime Cut by Diane Mott Davidson

 (A Goldy Bear Culinary Mystery #8)
305 pages / 10 hrs, 48 mins

"Caterer Goldy Schulz is convinced things couldn't get worse. An unscrupulous rival is driving her out of business. An incompetent contractor has left her precious kitchen in shambles. And she has just agreed to cater a fashion shoot at a nineteenth-century mountain cabin with her mentor and old friend, French chef Andre Hibbard.

"Together Goldy and Andre struggle in a hopelessly outdated kitchen to cater to a vacuous crowd of beautiful people whose personal dramas climax when a camera is pitched through a window . . . into the buffet. Then Goldy's contractor is found hanging in the house of one of her best friends. A second murder follows and Goldy must somehow solve a mystery and prepare for a society soire that could make--or break--her career." --from the publisher

Another good installment in the series, but not Davidson's best, imho. I thought there were too many new characters and not enough time to develop them. Still, this is one of my favorite series in the cozy mystery genre. I give it three out of five stars.
