Description
Get ready for a smorgasbord of delicious suspense prepared by Goldy Bear, an irrepressible mistress of menus and amateur sleuth. Filled with a cast of colorful characters and superb recipes, Catering to Nobody is the first in a series that has
made Diane Mott Davidson a bestselling author and the Queen of the Culinary Mystery. Goldy Bear, recently divorced, has made a home for herself and her young son in scenic Aspen Valley, Colorado. There, calls for Goldilock's Catering have been steady enough to pay the bills. But when a mourner is felled by rat poison during a
funeral buffet Goldy is serving, the police quickly close her business. Now it's up to Goldy to find the rat who has tainted her food and her reputation. As the mystery unfolds, its tension is sweetened by delectable recipes, including Goldy's Dream Cake, Dungeon Bars, and Honey Ginger Snaps.

        August 1, 1990
        Davidson's debut is as embarrassing as a fallen souffle would be to her narrator, divorced culinary artist Goldy Korman of Goldilocks'ok?yep Catering in Aspen Meadows, Colo. Goldy, in business to support herself and her 11-year-old son, Arch, caters the gathering after the funeral of Arch's teacher, at which her former father-in-law, gynecologist Fritz Korman, drinks from a poisoned cup. While the police make sure that Goldy is now ``catering to nobody,'' she begins her own investigation to clear herself. As amorous detective Tom Schulz courts her, Goldy courts danger, seeking connections among the recovered Fritz, the teacher and nearly everyone else in the rustic town, including her teenage lodger, Patty Sue. The only rewards of the mystery are recipes for tasty dishes and the endearing Arch, who outwits the killer and is the sole credible character in the overstuffed cast.

      • premium: True
      • source: AudioFile Magazine
      • content: This abridgment doesn't do justice to Davidson's characters. The story line is stretched pretty thin, too. Mary Gross, the versatile comedienne, reads fluidly and brings energy and excellent articulation to this tale of intrigue. Goldy tries to clear her name and discover who has attempted to poison her ex-father-in-law with her food. Investigating officer Tom Schulz is smitten with Goldy and wants her to stop the amateur detective work before she gets hurt. S.C.A. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
      • premium: True
      • source: AudioFile Magazine
      • content: Davidson and Rosenblat have created a unique and terrific piece of art, using elements of humor, danger, drama and suspense. Outstanding characterization is a talent both women possess. Rosenblat uses a pleasing variety of pitch, rhythms and voices. As always, Goldy, of Goldilocks Catering, cooks and solves a puzzling mystery. Often described as "the Julia Child of mystery writers," Davidson includes Goldy's recipes at the end of each narrative. Listeners will become "addicted" to this great team! S.C.A. Winner of AUDIOFILE's Earphones Award (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
