This is one of a series of mysteries featuring Evangeline Sinclair, an aging actress, and Trixie Dolan, an aging dancer and Evangeline's life-long friend.
In this story, Trixie's daughter is helping to write a cookbook, and she and her co-author take over Trixie and Evangeline's kitchen. The co-author is also working on another book, involving the tales of an Arctic explorer.
The problem starts with the fact that the previous cookbook author, who died, was the wife of the explorer who was on an expedition when his wife died, and no one has told him of her death yet.
He and his friends and family arrive at the apartment, and things start getting out of hand quite quickly.
The story isn't as well written as previous Trixie and Evangeline novels, but I still liked it, probably because I was already familiar with the main characters from previous books.
This fulfills a requirement for the A to Z Reading Challenge 2013
