About
The fifth book in the delectable Deep Dish Mystery series by Mindy Quigley, set in a Wisconsin pizzeria.
It's February in the swanky resort town of Geneva Bay, Wisconsin, and love is in the air-along with a whiff of danger. Pizza chef Delilah O'Leary is gearing up to celebrate her first Valentine's Day with her hunky police detective boyfriend, Calvin Capone, great-grandson of the legendary Chicago mob boss. But their romance is put on ice when a chilling discovery plunges Delilah and Capone into the heart of a century-old crime with ties to Capone's notorious forefather.
As old secrets begin to surface, Delilah realizes that nearly everyone in town-from Calvin's cagey cousin to her own eccentric customers-has something to hide. With the pressure mounting and the past closing in, Delilah must help Capone untangle a web of deceit that could lead them to a priceless treasure... or a heart-stopping finale. Will Delilah and Capone solve the mystery before history repeats itself? Or will they spend their first Valentine's Day together sleeping with the anchovies? MINDY QUIGLEY has won a number of awards for her short stories, including the 2013 Bloody Scotland prize and the 2018 Lightbringer award. Originally from Chicago, she possesses a naturally sophisticated pizza palate. Her desert island pizza choice would be Lou Malnati's "Deep Dish Lou" or an Aurelio's thin-crust with spinach, tomatoes, and black olives. She lives in Virginia with her history professor husband, their two children, and their miniature Schnauzer.
