When Caribbean-born Jane Michaels discovers her husband is cheating on her and then loses her job, she decides it's time for a fresh start. Leaving her adopted life in Canada behind, she returns to the small island of St. Jerome, where she and her childhood friend Nicole open a cozy vegetarian bistro.
Things seem to be going well. Jane has a talented chef, a wonderful staff, and everyone adores her food-everyone except Roy Bernier. Roy runs a popular raw food restaurant just a ten-minute walk from Jane's, and he's none too pleased that an outsider is stealing his spotlight. Soon, he begins to disrupt Jane's business in the most nasty and distressing ways-until, one morning, he's found unconscious on her bistro's doorstep, clutching one of her plantain tarts.
All eyes turn to Jane and her team. She's sure they're innocent. But if they didn't do it, who did-and why?
With the help of her friends, relatives, and Dennis, her kind (and handsome) vegetable supplier, Jane is determined to uncover the truth. Yet the closer she gets, the more her new life threatens to go up in smoke before she can savour it.
Rich in Afro-Caribbean flavour and charm, The Plantain Tart Mystery is a feel-good culinary whodunnit-served warm, with a dash of romance on the side.
