État et détails de cet exemplaire

Anneke Haagen was beginning to feel that maybe her marriage to Police Lieutenant Karl Genesko would never take place, but they were finally able to tie the knot in The Wedding Game (SMP 2000) and are now in San Francisco enjoying their honeymoon.

The trip starts out well-they get in a little sight seeing and even catch a 49ers game, which Karl, a former football player, loves. Then they receive an invitation from Richard Killian, Anneke's friend, to come and watch the University of Michigan game at his sportsbar, Maize and Blue, on Saturday. Anneke gladly accepts the invitation, because what could be better than watching the game surrounded by Michigan alumni and getting free food?

But when Anneke and Karl arrive, they discover that a number of things would have been better than going to Maize and Blue. As Anneke tries to watch the game, everyone around her keeps talking about food. "Big Nate's. Now that's the kind of barbecue that..." and "They do the best tampoi rice I've ever tasted" seems to be the common thread of conversation. To make matters even worse, a Michigan graduate student, Lindsay Summers, is questioning everyone about what triggers them to overeat, which doesn't make her very popular. But is that reason enough to kill her?

Anneke and Karl soon find themselves dragged into the investigation to help Richard who has become the prime suspect. As they search for answers amid a shish kebab of food activists with a dozen different agendas, Zoe Kaplan, Anneke's friend in Ann Arbor, makes a startling discovery that turns the investigation upside down and almost turns Zoe into another victim.

Résumé de Better Than Sex: A Mystery Featuring Anneke Haagen

Anneke Haagen vient enfin d'épouser le lieutenant de police Karl Genesko, et le couple profite de sa lune de miel à San Francisco. Les jeunes mariés assistent à un match des 49ers, puis acceptent l'invitation de Richard Killian, un ami d'Anneke, à regarder un match de l'Université du Michigan dans son sports-bar, le Maize and Blue. L'ambiance est vite gâchée : les convives ne parlent que de nourriture, et Lindsay Summers, étudiante diplômée, interroge tout le monde sur ce qui pousse à trop manger, ce qui ne la rend pas populaire. Lindsay Summers est tuée, et Richard devient le principal suspect. Anneke et Karl sont entraînés dans l'enquête pour l'aider, au milieu d'activistes de l'alimentation aux intérêts divers.
