Quill, for one, is not impressed with the obnoxious Tree, nor with his television rival, Belter Barcini, who blows into town for what looks like a ratings-booster showdown: a friendly cook-off between two sparring personalities. Its a good thing Quill and her sister, Meg, are experts at appraising motives for murder when one of the cooks keels over on camerabecause the suspects are piling up, and Quill is chosen to play detective.
