description: Chloe Carter's dream boyfriend, Josh Driscoll, is prepping for the opening of Simmer, Boston's hottest new restaurant - which means her love life is being put on the back burner. Josh is too busy to be her own personal naked chef for awhile.But bigger problems are to come. At a fund-raiser featuring samples of Josh's cuisine, a trendy club owner is found bludgeoned to death by Josh's state-of-the-art, professional-grade food processor, the ominously named Robocoupe.Chloe would love to pin the murder on Josh's ex-girlfriend, who found the body...and who's also still after Josh's body. But Chloe's own boss at the Boston Organization Against Sexual and Other Harassment in the Workplace could be a possibility too. Word is, the murder victim was worse than your everyday flirt, and he just might have put the moves on the wrong woman. If that's the case, his wife had a motive, too, and Chloe has to check out her alibi.By opening night at Simmer, the list of suspects is almost longer than the line to get in. And Chloe is struggling to solve the crime before the final course is served.
