In this entertaining and delightful mystery, an Italian chef and her cousins start their own investigation to clear their grandmotherâ€™s name after sheâ€™s arrested for murder.,At Miracolo Northern Italian restaurant, one can savor brilliantly seasoned veal saltimbocca, or luscious risotto alla milanese, but no cannoli. Never cannoli. Maria Pia Angelotta, the spirited seventy-six-year-old owner of the Philadelphia-area eatery thatâ€™s been in her family for four generations, has butted heads with her head chef over the cannoli ban more than once. And when the head chef is your own granddaughter, things can get a little heated., , Fortunately, Eve Angelotta knows how to handle what her nonna dishes out. But when Maria Piaâ€™s boyfriend is found dead in Miracoloâ€™s kitchen, bludgeoned by a marble mortar, the question arises: Can a woman this fiery and stubborn over cream-filled pastry be capable of murder?, , The police seem to think so, and they put the elder Angelotta behind bars, while Eve, sexy neighborhood attorney Joe Beck, and the entire Miracolo familyâ€”parenti di sangue and otherwiseâ€”try every trick in the cookbook to unravel a tangle of lies and expose a killer.
