Fiction. Mystery. HTML:

Nashville Katz is about to be the main course of her own Early Bird Special!

Has deli owner and former New Yorker Gwen "Nashville" Katz bitten off more than she can chew? The spunky owner of Murray's Pastrami Swami finds the McCoy's Bakery delivery guy dead right in front of her deli, and his employers want to settle someone's corned beef hash. With the pregnant wife of the expired driver due any minute and her policeman brother turning up the heat, Gwen's in quite a pickleâ??she's a prime suspect and is about to face a griddling hot enough to sizzle a Hebrew National Frankfurter.

Clearing her name and finding the killer won't be easy. Is it a newspaper editor with an off-the-record grudge? A dirty cop? Maybe a vegan with a serious beef? Between juggling two romances and making salami sandwiches, Gwen barely has time to dig for clues. But when she uncovers an un-kosher Katz family secret, she knows it's now. . .or never! Because the ties that bind. . .can also strangle!

A Deadly Deli Mystery

A little slow at the start, but the action picks up quickly. Are things between Gwen and Grant over? What's going on with the newspaper reporter? Will Murray's win the best mid-range restaurant award? And what bombshell is the mystery lady going to drop on her? ( )

Well, if I hadn't needed this book for a challenge, I would have stopped long before reaching the end of Chapter 5. Gwen is an absolute raving lunatic in the first few chapters - ripping into everyone, treating everyone really badly and acting like an ass. A real turn-off. But as I mentioned, I really needed this book for a challenge so I soldiered on. The good news is it does improve dramatically as the story progresses, but I'm not sure it improves enough for me to continue on with the series.

The mystery behind this one - who killed the bread delivery guy - was well crafted with a lot of suspects and a really well done ending. The author did a really good job with the plot itself and with most of the secondary characters. Perhaps she decided she herself did not like Gwen and chose to rip her apart so that she could re-build her character? I don't know.

I'll also note that the blurb on the back is just flat out incorrect in at least one big way: "With the pregnant wife of the expired driver due any minute..." No pregnancy at all in this book. Must have been some serious re-writes going on before publishing? ( )
