DeeDee and Steve Pearson enjoy that rare thing––a happy marriage. The only fly in their marital bliss is the fact that they are approaching retirement age with only one pension (Steve’s). DeeDee hopes to remedy their financial situation by starting her own business––a catering company. Her first job is at Eden Academy, a private school staffed by teachers who loathe one another and a principal who is strongly lacking in principles, especially when it comes to his female employees. When this lothario winds up dead after DeeDee’s luncheon, and her first paycheck is put on what looks like permanent hold, DeeDee decides to find out who murdered the man so that she can be assured that her first catering job will be “paid in full.” As she investigates all the faculty and staff at Eden, she soon discovers that any one of them could have finished off their boss. Will DeeDee solve the murder and get her paycheck? Or will she end up “catered to death”?
