Well Done and Dead
(2026)(Book 11 in the Penelope Sinclair Cozy Murder Mystery series)
A novel by Tessa Aura
A perfect opening night. A celebrity chef. A murder served before dessert.
When celebrity chef Dominic Hale opens his luxury waterfront restaurant in Bath, Maine, the town turns out in full force—even if half the guests secretly can’t stand him.
After all, Dominic has a talent for taking credit, crushing dreams, and making enemies with a smile.
So when he’s found dead before the final course, nobody seems entirely shocked.
Not even antique dealer Penelope Sinclair.
Penelope helped design the restaurant and had access to every corner of the building. Now she finds herself tangled in a murder involving bitter kitchen rivalries, broken business deals, stolen ambitions, and secrets someone is desperate to keep buried.
A furious sous chef with everything to lose.
An ex-wife armed with legal threats.
A charming nephew who knows more than he says.
And someone watching Penelope far more closely than feels comfortable.
Because in Bath, Maine, revenge is simmering...and somebody isn’t done cleaning up the mess.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
