There was a palpable absence of grief, too, which bothered me the longer I read. I kept reading because I wanted to know what had happened and who had done what to whom, but I also wanted to yell at the characters frequently. Here is an important note for prospective readers: if it will bother you to read a mystery wherein the people who are suspected of murder allow themselves to be questioned multiple times without their attorney present, even after said attorney, who is a friend of Lila’s, tells them to stop doing that, you might want to skip this one.
Or maybe, wash dishes, dry, then repeat at a different restaurant. Lila’s investigation mainly rests on her going to different restaurants, asking questions ineptly, eating a lot of different cuisines and describing them at length, then lather, rinse, repeat. She decides to investigate the nefarious ex to find out who really killed him.
When Lila’s ex-boyfriend drops dead during his meal with his stepfather, the restaurant’s landlord, Lila becomes the prime suspect. Lila Macapagal has moved back to Shady Palms after a hella-bad breakup, and is trying to help her aunt with her restaurant, which is in financial trouble.
