I am a sucker for any goofy themed murder mystery series...this one is no exception. Not my favorite book in the series but not bad either!

It should be the happiest day of Goldy the caterer's life. After years of putting the disaster of her first marriage behind her, she has finally found the courage to love again. Soon she'll be walking down the aisle of St. Luke's Episcopal Church to wed the man of her dreams, Tom Schulz, a homicide detective who shares Goldy's passions for preparing food and solving crimes.
But moments after Goldy's put the finishing touches on the scrumptious wedding feast, and just before the ceremony begins, she receives an urgent phone call from the groom. The wedding is off, and the reason is a killer.
In The Last Suppers, Diane Mott Davidson mixes irresistible suspense with delectable humor to create a five-star treat for readers and cooks alike. Included are Goldy's original recipes for such delicious dishes as her heavenly Dark Chocolate Wedding Cake with White Peppermint Frosting, savory Shrimp on Wheels and zesty Fusilli in Parmesan Cream Sauce.

A chum of mine, who is a reader of the annual General Ordination Examinations of the Episcopal Church, recommended this book to me, knowing that I am a member of the General Board of Examining Chaplains, the group that writes the exam. The author, Diane Mott Davidson, was for many years a member of the Board of Examining Chaplains of the Diocese of Colorado. Eventually, she would set one of her culinary murder mysteries in and around an Episcopal Church. As a bonus, Goldy Bear -- the caterer-detective protagonist -- is also a member of the diocesan examining chaplains and there are a lot of details about the General Ordination Exam in this little book. Like many of the best works of culinary fiction, this one includes recipes. Not quite a cozy, this work has greatest appeal for women readers. Davidson spends a lot of time telling the reader what the characters are wearing, right down to precisely-defined colours, which are meaningless to many men. The heroine is believable, likeable and clever and, it would appear, a pretty good cook. I'm happy to have read this particular one in her mystery series; I am unlikely to read another. (show less)

Great like all the Goldy Catering books are. But I had trouble reading, just due to the deep feeling it brought up. The loss of someone you loved, even if she did loose him. She was married in the end.
