In this wonderful sequel to Recipes for Love and Murder, Slimkat the bushman finds his life under threat and Tannie Maria is determined to find out who wants to kill him. But her boyfriend is keen to keep Tannie out of danger, and she's pretty sure he's hiding something so Tannie has mysteries of her own solve . . . Blending a perfect whodunnit with lovable characters, Sally Andrew really does have the perfect recipe for a crime series.

Exotic and enchanting * * Wall Street Journal * *
Chock full of good food and interesting characters -- KERRY GREENWOOD
Utterly delicious, to the very last morsel -- DEON MEYER
Funny and sweet - but it has a hard edge and doesn't skirt the difficult subjects of South Africa's history or the region's huge problem with domestic violence. It's a culinary and linguistic treat too . . . The story includes recipes - and has a pleasing bite -- CATHY RENTZENBRINK * * The Bookseller, Fiction Editor's Choice * *
Something to savour...especially in its assertion that there's not much in life that the love of a little lamb, stalwart friendships, intimate relationships and several slices of the tantalizingly-titled Venus Cake can't cure * * Seattle Review of Books * *
An enticing, engrossing novel filled with charmingly fascinating characters, interesting subplots, believable psychological struggles [and] a delightful sense of place * * Reviewing the Evidence * *
Sublime * * Publishers Weekly STARRED Review * *
A satisfying feast for readers * * Shelf Awareness * *
