According to the other cops, Rosie Epstein would have been a great detective if she'd only had balls. The thirty-two-year-old dealt with the obnoxious males of the Boston Police Department for ten years before a rich kid in a Lincoln ruined her knee and ended her career. Yet, just as she settles in for a life of painkillers and whiskey, the murder of a botanist and the kidnapping of his Chinese assistant forces her to shove a gun and a gold badge back into her purse. A Tasty Murder, set in Boston in 1975, is a mystery wrapped around a flavor-enhancing spray made from an orchid that has no fragrance, the murder of its discoverer, and the power to kill wielded by a conglomerate of wealthy cattle ranchers in Texas. Rosie's disdain for government and her "as good as any man" attitude have molded her into a cop, cold when she has to be, who doesn't hesitate to use her gun, but is constantly on the lookout for love.
Autorenporträt
Ricky Ginsburg is one of those storytellers who sees a flock of birds heading South for the winter and wonders what they talk about on their journey. Most of his available brain storage is full of untold tales. While much of his writing has elements of magical realism and humor, he also has a serious side, but keeps it in a small plexiglass box under his desk.
