This is the fourth entry in the A Red Carpet Catering Mystery series. The sleuth is Penelope Sutherland, who is also the owner and head chef of Red Carpet Catering, which is a catering service for movies and television crews.

In this book, Penelope and her crew are on the road in Indiana. She is once again working with her best friend, housemate, and part-time employer, Arlena. Arlena is also an up-and-coming movie star. While she is part of the story, there is less focus on her as well as on any of the mainstay characters (Joey, Max and Randall) in the series besides Penelope.

The book starts with the death of the head chef of the inn/restaurant where the crew is staying. When suspicious arise as exactly how the chef dies, the action in the book springs forward as well.

The story has a good amount of false leads, actual clues and action to keep me wondering. The whodunnit caught me somewhat by surprise though, looking back, I could see the clues. I enjoyed this mystery and look forward to more in the series.

I was provided a digital advance reader copy of this book by the publisher via Netgalley.
