Death of a Syllabub
A Claire Malloy Mystery of Poisoned Desserts, Small-College Politics and One Very Bad Dinner PartyBy Ruthie DelacorteLength8h 40m
About this audiobook
Bookseller Corrie Malloy is minding her own business at the Founders' Dinner when the dean's wife dies between the syllabub and the coffee. The college calls it a heart attack. The coroner calls it aconite. The dean calls Corrie, because her late husband used to do this sort of thing and Corrie has a bad habit of being right. With the centenary fundraiser three weeks out and the endowment mysteriously six figures short, Corrie follows the dessert course back to the home-economics kitchen, the herb garden and the college's second set of ledgers. Olivia had found the discrepancy, and someone read her notes. Between customers and the cat, Corrie discovers that a small college has very large appetites — and that the safest way to catch a poisoner is to seat every suspect exactly where they sat the first time and serve the syllabub again. A wry Claire Malloy mystery of desserts, deans and very bad dinner parties.
