As a health inspector and former chef, Poppy Markham thought she'd seen it all—until she steps into Capital Punishment. The restaurant's twisted concept—last meals of death row inmates—could be a hit only in outlandish Austin, Texas. But the macabre theme becomes all too real when co-owner Troy Sharpe is found dangling from a hangman's noose in the cinder block dining room. Discovering that Troy was a hard-drinking jerk leads Poppy to the rub: if Troy had more enemies than a jail has bars, which one sent him to the land of rigor-mortised restaurateurs?
Praise:
"A must-read for cozy lovers."—Publishers Weekly
"An entertaining mystery set in the modern, dynamic city of Austin, Stick a Fork in It demonstrates Robin Allen's knowledge and skill as she masters her craft and entertains her readers."—Texas Books in Review
