This new venture takes an unexpected twist when she discovers that her archnemesis, Heather Curtis, is her co-judge. As if that weren’t enough to stir the pot, one of the competitors is Chef Benjy Hayes, Jackie’s long-lost ex-boyfriend.
Disaster strikes as Heather takes a fatal taste of Benjy’s dish. Determined to clear Benjy's name—and her own—Jackie relies on her wits and the unique skills of her friends and family. The kitchen timer is ticking as Jackie races to bring the killer to justice before her own goose is cooked.
Don’t miss the first installment of this cozy culinary mystery series, where a spicy blend of murder, rivalry, and second chances will have you salivating for the next serving. Get ready for Claws of Death, and embark on a culinary adventure you won't soon forget.

Jackie as a recovering alcoholic can only get small town festival jobs as a celebrity judge cook but she knows if she is to make a come back she has to start small and prove herself once again. Her first job is at a crab festival, the problem is her ex boyfriend is in the contest and her arch nemesis is also on the judging panel. When the rival judge dies after tasting the soup, the police are called in and the finger gets pointed at Jackie. Rather than hit the bottle, Jackie and her brother decide they would do better to solve the murder themselves. The judge wasn't well liked and the suspect like might be long but first they have to work out who the killer was trying to kill. Heather? Jackie herself or the third judge? Or even the festival? Can Jackie figure it out before she possibly becomes another victim.
I liked the narrator. She really made the characters come alive in my mind, making them easy to picture.
