Snarky food critic Josie Tucker usually can soothe any problem with food or drink. Missed bus? Mango-orange smoothie. Mild doldrums? A piece of peppered beef jerky. But lately, she can't stand the smell of a watery cup of broth. Being at the mercy of an indignant and vengeful stomach is no cup of tea. So what happens when she gets roped into being the last-minute bridesmaid at a society wedding? The bride's mother tries to kill her with kindness. Too bad for the bride, Josie won't be the only victim. "'The Bride Wore Dead' is a tasty, and thoroughly enjoyable, mystery." --Mike Billington, author "The Bride Wore Dead has everything a reader expects from modern crime fiction - sharp writing, an unpredictable plot, quirky characters.

Her characterisation has depth." --Virginia King, former prize-winning publisher, author of "The First Lie" (BRAG Medallion Honoree)
