A gourmet airship banquet takes dinner-and murder-to the next level. For Alex LeBeau, everything is finally mise en place-falling into place. Given an opportunity to teach at a friend's struggling cooking school, Alex LeBeau returns to Louisiana, determined not to ruin it by falling for the first beautiful woman who crosses her path. Naturally, as she rushes to prepare for a catered airship banquet, she literally sprawls at the feet of Josephine, whose warm eyes and baffling accent melt Alex's heart into a puddle of ganache. But when a banquet mishap leaves the hostess dead and Alex's son charged with murder, Alex must risk everything-including exposing her past-to save her son. And stop the real killer from striking again. Note: This alternate-history steampunk mystery contains lesbian and transgender characters, a multicultural romance, mechanical wonders, mouth-watering dishes, horny old ladies, sweet kisses, bitter memories, and murder-by-popcorn. Bon appetit!
