Thwarting an assassination wasn’t on the menu. Elinor’s holiday is nearly ruined when a poisoner targets the king, and what’s even more irritating? Tristan Fontaine, the Duke de Archambeau, thinks to solve the case before she can! Between dead husbands and noble boors, Elinor snoops through wardrobe closets, determined to put Tristan in his place. Between saving a society lady’s reputation, comforting a girl with a ghostly brother, and conducting a séance for a widow, Elinor has her hands full. It’s enough to spoil the dessert course.
