The Wedding Soup Murder

Victoria Rienzi came home to the Jersey Shore to write a new book, learn the family restaurant business, and practice the fine art of Italian cooking. But when delicious dishes are paired with murder, Vic has a little too much on her plate…

When Vic asked her nonna for more responsibility in the kitchen, she didn’t mean forming a thousand tiny meatballs by hand for the family’s famous wedding soup. The dish is to be served at the reception for a close family friend at the exclusive Belmont Country Club. And once there Vic has to deal with a demanding bridezilla and clashes in the kitchen—between the staff and servers, between two egocentric head chefs, and between the country club president and…well…everyone.

The wedding comes off without a hitch—until the body of the club’s president is found on the beach below a high seawall. Now Vic will need to use her noodle to find out who pushed whom too far…before she’s the one who lands in the soup!

Vic has ended up in the thick of it again, the family restaurant is providing some traditional Italian dishes for the wedding of a friend's daughter, when she and Tim arrive at the country club they are not really welcomed and that sets the scene for the rest of the night with the chefs sniping, the pastry chef not being happy at not providing everything and the club President trying to micromanage everyone!

Later that evening Vic overhears the club president and the bride's father having a spat and then the next day one of them is dead.  Who killed them and why? Against pretty much everyone's ideas (apart from her SIL) Vic starts digging to find out what happened.
