Murder, olive oil, and one very opinionated cat. At the Liechtenstein Harvest Festival, baker Theodora Papadakis just wanted to sell pastries—not fish a famous food critic out of sixty gallons of premium olive oil. When the slippery scene turns out to be murder, Thea and her feline sidekick Loukoumi dive into a twisty investigation involving fake identities, theatrical disguises, and thermal properties no killer should have underestimated. But the real crime? Wasting that much perfect olive oil. Armed with sharp wit, Greek pastries, and centuries of culinary instinct, Thea must outsmart a murderer who thinks they’ve staged the perfect crime. Too bad for them: they forgot olive oil preserves everything. The Olive Oil Drowning is a cozy mystery as clever as it is delicious—perfect for fans of pie contests, Mediterranean sass, and women who solve crimes with snacks.
