The follow-up to Murder in Chianti finds ex-NYPD detective Nico Doyle recruited by Italian authorities to investigate the murder of a prominent wine critic. One year after moving to his late wife’s Tuscan hometown of Gravigna, ex-NYPD detective Nico Doyle has fully settled into Italian country life, helping to serve and test recipes at his in-laws’ restaurant. But the town is shaken by the arrival of wine critic Michele Mantelli in his flashy Jaguar. Mantelli holds his influential culinary magazine and blog over Gravigna’s vintners and restaurateurs. Some of Gravigna's residents are impressed by his reputation, while others are enraged—especially Nico's landlord, whose vineyards Mantelli seems intent of ruining. Needless to say, Mantelli’s lavish, larger-than-life, and often vindictive personality has made him many enemies, and when he is poisoned, the local maresciallo, Perillo, has a headache of a high-profile murder on his hands—and once again turns to Nico for help.

The French Quarter restaurant is a favorite of Portia "Po" Paltrow and her happy band of quilters, the Queen Bees -- and not just because the proprietor and chef, Picasso, does wonders for their collective palates, but because the relative newcomer is one of the warmest, friendliest people in the town of Crestwood, Kansas. So when Picasso's glamorous wife, Laurel St. Pierre, is murdered, the town is in an uproar and the Queen Bees are determined to help poor Picasso through a difficult time. They have no idea just how hard it's going to get, especially when Picasso becomes the prime suspect. If there's one thing Po knows, it's that Picasso did not murder his wife. She and her sleuthing quilters are going to have to dig deep to find out what happened to Laurel.
