But an accusation that her famous Black Bean Soup is poison has left a bad taste in Faith's mouth. Her exploration into the source of the nasty slander leads the amateur investigator behind the scenes to a shocking off-camera murder. And suddely more than Faith's reputation is at stake - her life itself could end up on the cutting room floor. The fifth clever cozy featuring caterer-turned-sleuth Faith Fairchild.
