Pizza, Pasta and Pistols

Nail-biting suspense and culinary delights: a delicious-malicious crime-blend anthology by topclass authors.

The unfaithful waitress, who divulged the recipe for spaghetti puttanesca back then, is to meet her death today, but things don’t go quite according to plan… This anthology combines thrills for both the mind and the palate in a highly entertaining manner. From murder in Tuscany to a wild chase across Lago Maggiore, from supposed ›amore‹ in Palermo to a fatal accident in Liguria: suspense and thrills are guaranteed. And the best thing of all: each story is rounded off by an appropriate recipe – trying them out is (in most cases) to be recommended.
