For readers who love both mysteries and true crime, this book is inspired by the extensive research Marcia Mitchell conducted in her award-winning nonfiction about real-life spies and the agents who have tracked them—across continents and generations. While the saucy, daring Maggie Sachet is fictional, how she handles her cases has been vetted by retired FBI agents, who ensure that the action is realistic. Maggie's cranky, sometimes socially tone-deaf boss provides the opportunity to explore contemporary gender politics in an intense and often dangerous setting. Meanwhile, her offbeat relationships with friends, family, and her beloved cat allow us to cheer her on as she solves cases and catches bad guys. An extra bonus comes in the form of actual gourmet recipes that Maggie somehow fits into her busy schedule—whether she's dining alone or with special guests. Just as the story's case is legitimate according to the FBI, these elegant meals are legitimate according to the author, herself a true foodie. In this pilot book of the Maggie Sachet Mystery Series, our heroine is tasked with rubber-stamping an “unsolvable, unconnected” set of cold murder cases. But as conflicting clues start to “connect,” she can't ignore the intrigue, even when the arrows start aiming at her.
