This is the first book I have read by this author and I am now hooked. If you love cooking and/or food and you enjoy good fiction writing, you will definitely enjoy this series.
Most recent by Diane Mott Davidson-2007 paperback! And one of her best!!!Goldy Schultz caters breakfast to a local law firm and finds to her horror that her neighbor and friend, a paralegal for the law firm, has been killed! This is a great cozy mystery in which Goldy, as usual, has to help her husband Tom, who happens to be with the sheriff's department, solve this case!! I could not quit reading until I finished this one!!
Great mystery in her Colorado town, complete with her great recipes! YUM!
Excellent writer. Interesting characters. Great story. A good cozy mystery.
This is a typical Diane Mott Davidson culinary mystery. Goldy Shulz always finds herself involved in some crime or another and her sweet, thoughtful, loving husband (who happens to be a police officer in their town) is not always too keen on her involvement. Goldy cooks and bakes for her catering business as well as to relieve stress or anger when she has been threatened or incriminated. Readers will follow Goldy's roller coaster ride as she frantically tries to juggle her catering business while also solving the crime at hand and just when you thought that the fun was over, Davidson includes a little gift of Goldy's recipes at the very end of the book.
Once again, Davidson delights with Goldy's crazy antics and humorous dialog. The recipies are to die for (pun intended)!
I have loved the Goldy mysteries up to this point, but I couldn't even finish this one. I felt like someone else wrote the book...the dialogue was stilted and everything felt very forced.
Another Goldy mystery with good recipes. Somewhat of a surprise as to the killer.
Again Diane Mott Davidson hits it with a who dunit that keeps you involved.
Murder hits close to home this time.
I really enjoyed reading this and found I couldn't put it down. I read while I cooked. And I find myself hungry when I read her books.
Great recieps to follow at the end. You must try some of these.

I have loved this whole series and this one kept me guessing! It was a very quick and smooth read.
This book was fun and a part of the Goldy Shulz collection. I read the first one Dying for Chocolate and this one. This has several other books in-between the Dying for Chocolate and Dark Tort but the characters are on-going with Goldy married again and things have happened to her ex and her family since the first book. This was suspenseful and a quick read with the recipes at the back instead of in each chapter like Dying for Chocolate. I think these are as fun as the Janet Evanovich series.
Love the Goldy novels - cannot wait to see what comes next.
This was the best one yet! Loved the storyline... like the way everything interrelates
Another nice read from Davidson. I truly love this mystery series.
Caterer Goldy Schulz's lucrative new gig, preparing breakfasts and conference room snacks for a local law firm, is time-consuming, but she's enjoying it . . . until the night she arrives to find Dusty, the firm's paralegal, dead. The deceased also happened to be Goldy's friend and neighbor, and now Dusty's grieving mother is begging Goldy to find out who murdered her daughter.
Just because the police are on the case doesn't mean Goldy can't do a little snooping herself. While catering a party at the home of one of the firm's lawyers, she just happens to overhear an incriminating conversation. She also discovers a few tasty clues in the kitchen. Before long, Goldy finds herself knee-deep in suspects. But one of them is incredibly dangerous . . . and very liable to cook Goldy's goose.

Got this book and one other by the same author from a friend. They were actually pretty good and had a good plot.
It was great as all of this series has been for me.
