Publisher's Notes

Business has never been better at the Oracle Cafe in Delphi, Georgia, until one of the regulars orders breakfast and is served up murder. All the evidence points to owner and chef Nick Lambros. As Nick reluctantly surrenders his hash browns into the capable hands of Spiro, a gentle giant from Crete, he and Julia dig into the main course of dirty deals and stone-cold murder, complete with a killer who will stop at nothing to see them both fried.
