Publisher Description

“Today’s foremost practitioner of the culinary whodunit.” —Entertainment Weekly

“In the genre of culinary mystery writers, Davidson is a Julia Child among Betty Crockers, and there is no question that Double Shot is her best book.” —Denver Post

New York Times bestseller Diane Mott Davidson is the darling of cozy mystery readers and dedicated foodies the world over. Davidson is really cooking with Double Shot, another tantalizing puzzle featuring her beloved protagonist, accomplished caterer and sleuth Goldy Schulz. Whipping up a rich soufflé of murder and mischief, Davidson has Goldy in a stew once again, when the reemergence of her psychopathic ex-husband and a murder that follows soon after brings chaos into her world. And, as always, many delicious recipes from Goldy’s kitchen are featured as well.

"This is my second Goldy mystery. I thought this book had a better plot than the first one I read. I always like the little cooking tidbits in the books. This time I will try the brined pork chops. Something that I never heard of before. These mysteries are light, easy reads. "

    " Listened to this book on CD while driving my mom to Phoenix. There were too many characters, and seemed a bit contrived, but I loved the recipes that were included and the setting for the book is in Colorado, near where I live, so I loved the references to places that I know. The mystery kept me guessing up till the very end. "

    " It's been a while since I've read about Goldy and her gang, but I'm glad I went back to visit. I now need to go back and read Dark Tort and Double Shot-because clearly I missed some important developments! "

    " Silly plots, but since the main character cooks for a living, there are amazing recipes in the book. Fun escapist reading, finished in a couple of hours. "

    " Murder mysteries are my guilty pleasure, and this series is one of my favorite for pure entertainment-reading. I do have to emphasize that it is the audio version that I'm giving 4 stars; the woman who does the reading (Barbara Rosenblat) is delightful to listen to. "

    " 1/6/12 - This was a so-so read. It read like an abridged book (which it was), meaning I had a little trouble keeping track of the characters and the transitions were a little abrupt. The story itself was decent enough, the writing was okay. I may have enjoyed this more had it not been abridged. "

    " Goldy is attacked when she arrives at her new catering center. She finds spoiled food and mice. Later that day after she argues with him, she finds ex-husband John Richard murdered. To clear herself, she has to find his murderer. Along the way she discovers the product of one of his affairs, years earlier. Typical Davidson with lots of secrets, twists, and murders in a very small town. "

    " Still the best one I've read and this the second time I've read it. A wonderful, fast paced "foodie" mystery. Diane's character development is excellent, even if you've never read about Goldy Bear Catering, you are instantly drawn into their lives and troubles. "

    " Double Shot is book #12 in the Goldie mysteries. She is a caterer who can get into some sticky situations. Her characters are interesting from her son, husband, and ex-husband. Her series is a good cozy mystery. "

    " GoldyBear Schulz #12: A catering sleuth? This stylistic mashup seems forced; like full-fat milk gone bad, it just doesn't flow smoothly. I may try another one of the series someday, but this particular book is a flop. "

    " This is a fun little beach read mystery. I liked the easy reading and how the main character likes to cook (so human) in times of anxiety, thought, stress. Cute and fun--with a murder mystery of course, take it to the beach--although you will crave cookies after. "
