Is the "Holy Pail" cursed? Every owner of the vintage Chappy Wheeler lunchbox–a prototype based on the 1940s TV western–has died. And now Sterling Price, business tycoon and a client of Odelia Grey's law firm, has been fatally poisoned. Is it a coincidence that Price's one-of-a-kind lunch pail–worth over thirty grand–has disappeared at the same time? Treading cautiously since a recent run-in with a bullet, Odelia takes small bites of this juicy, calorie-free mystery–and is soon ravenous for more! Her research reveals a sixty-year-old unsolved murder and Price's gold-digging ex-fiancée with two married men wrapped around her breasts . . . uh, finger. Mix in a surprise marriage proposal that sends an uncertain Odelia into chocolate sedation, and you've got an unruly recipe for delicious disaster.

Quotes edit see section history

  • “My attention kept going back to the items behind the glass doors. "Um, are those lunchboxes?"”
    Odelia
  • “I never felt young, not even when I was. When I was sixteen, my family claimed that I behaved more like a thirty-two-year-old. But it's easy to act older in a family suffering from arrested development.”
    Odelia
  • “I was born to be middle-aged. It fits me like comfy flannerl pajamas that are worn and washed until they are faded and thin; clothing with no eager need to prove anything.”
    Odelia

First Sentence edit see section history
