A Dead Dude in the Deli Makes Max's Stomach Churn
When ex-chef turned vanlifer Max Effort pops into Del's Deli for some well-deserved treats, his hunger is soon forgotten when the owner, a complete stranger to our culinary hero, is discovered murdered.
Max is used to the rather astonishing number of murder mysteries he encounters on his travels, but when a note is found asking him to discover who killed Del, and written by the deceased himself, he's left with a real head-scratcher.
How did the man know in advance he would be killed? How did he know Max would enter the deli at precisely the right moment? And most perplexing of all, how come the deli owner made a quiche with a soggy bottom when he was a pro with pastry?
With Anxious the Jack Russell Terrier helping to sniff out the clues—attention firmly on the pork pies—the duo are determined to get answers, and team up with Del's distraught assistant to uncover the truth, or possibly die trying.
There's much more to this case than any of them could have imagined, and the deeper they dig the more they realise this is one murder that might best remain unsolved.
Contains a stunning one-pot recipe at the end. Perfect for those on the road, or anyone who wants a great meal without all the washing up!
A journey of freedom, friendship, and murder mystery on the open road.
