Here it is! The cover to the forthcoming Irene Deep in Texas Trouble, fourth in my Irene in Chicago Culinary Mysteries.
Irene Deep in Texas Trouble is
all about love and romance—and murder! Fred Erisman thinks it’s the best Irene
saga so far.
It’s Christmas in Texas.
Henny’s best friend, Charlie, is marrying the love of her life, rich and
spoiled Rick Scott, and Henny is to cater the wedding supper. Irene and Chance
are spending the holiday with Henny’s family, and Irene steps in as Henny’s
sous chef. When there’s a sensational murder at the supper, Irene is the prime
suspect. Things are complicated by a wild set of characters and events—a mysterious stranger, threatening notes, a runaway
couple, and a kidnapping. But Henny persists—and learns that there are all
kind of couples in this world.
Come on down to Texas and
wander the historic Fort Worth stockyards, watch a rodeo, learn about a new
competitive sport, and eat some Texas food. While Irene detests most of the
Texas menu, you’ll probably like it. Recipes included.
A note
on Irene’s changing face: readers have pointed out that the Irene on the cover
of the first book, Saving Irene, looks older than subsequent covers. In
the first book of course, she loses her husband to murder, sours on Chicago,
and flees to France. By the second book, she has established her save in
Peyrolles-en-Provence and sweets into Chicago to cater Henny’s wedding—or so
she thinks. She’s more self-confident, settled.
But
ah, the third book: Irene is a woman in love. You can see it on her face, in
her smile. And in this book? She is a woman well loved, secure enough to be a
bit demanding, a bit manipulative. See it in her eyes?
