Annie is finally leaving the safety of her old bank job to work at her boyfriend Jim's restaurant, Bellywasher's. Lucky for Old Town Alexandria, Virginia, she's working as the manager and staying safely away from the flames And lucky for Annie, she's working with her best friend, Eve, the hostess.

Things start taking a turn for the worse when Jim's old friend, legendary cook Jacques Lavoie, doesn't show up to teach their cooking class.

With his odd disappearance and evidence mounting up against him, it looks like the cook has really landed in the soup. Now, Annie must sift through every morsel of evidence--before someone else gets served their last course...
