Review: Delicious Death (Book #2 Madame Chalamet Ghost Mysteries)

 Delicious Death is the second installment in the Madame Chalamet Ghost Mysteries series. As she suffers from extreme boredom, Elinor receives an invitation to the annual winter festival. She and Dr. Charlotte LaRue travel to a remote estate for the extravaganza that features culinary competition among the greatest chefs of the realm. Though she is there for the change in scenery and the delightful food, Madame Chalamet is NOT disappointed to encounter ghosts or madmen. An attempt on the king’s life points fingers at Elinor’s favorite chef and friend, Gerhard Perdersen. She joins forces with Tristan, the Duke of Archambeau, to apprehend the true culprit.

This is another delightful episode in the Madame Chalamet Ghost Mysteries series. Against the backdrop of a an attempted murder mystery, we see more of Elinor’s true nature as she comforts the grieving. Even though the overall tone of the book is light-hearted, there is much to unpack about the way we treat others and who deserves our respect. 

This book is great for mystery lovers and those who like a bit of paranormal activity or food appreciation mixed in. I can hardly wait for book three in the series! February can’t come soon enough.

#DeliciousDeath will be available on Kindle December 27!
