A struggling food show, a marriage on the rocks, and a dead influencer in the Japanese hot spring... what do they have in common? Me.
When my soon-to-be-ex and I arrived in this beautiful Japanese spa village to film our YouTube food show, becoming a murder suspect wasn't part of my content strategy.
But after a famous visitor propositioned my husband and I told her where to stick her yoga mat, she turned up dead in the hot spring. Now I'm racing to solve the crime before I either become the next victim or star in "Japanese Prison Cuisine" for life.
Armed with nothing but my foodie radar and questionable judgment, I dive into the murder investigation. But between faking marital bliss for our fans, a blackmail note with a yakuza connection that may or may not be my overactive imagination, and my actor husband's TV-cop "expertise," this Japanese getaway quickly turns into my worst nightmare. (Okay, at least the sushi is to die for.)
My grandma always said I had a talent for kneading myself into fine messes, but this might just be my masterpiece.
