Carolyn Blue is an empty nester who now writes for a local newspaper about food, which gives her an excuse to frequent the sort of restaurants that her husband Jason, a head in the clouds chemistry professor with a passion for counting pennies, wouldn't dare enter. So when Jason takes her to Lyon, France to present a paper, she's delighted to come along. Lyon is renowned as a culinary crossroad and Carolyn is determined to make the most of it...even if someone is trying to kill one or both of them.

Carolyn Blue and her husband Jason are in Paris for his lecture tour—and she plans to enjoy the city's culinary delights. But delight turns deadly when a poisonous recipe appears on the local menus.
