  • Summary

  • In this atmospheric 1970s mystery set in Plymouth, Massachusetts, Detective Margaret "Peggy" Sullivan and her younger partner James Chen investigate a series of meticulously planned murders during Thanksgiving. The killer, Alice Cooper, is the presumed-dead daughter of restaurateurs who perished in a suspicious fire a decade earlier. Targeting members of an exclusive supper club who conspired to destroy her family's restaurant, Alice stages elaborate death scenes incorporating fine dining elements and holiday traditions. As the investigation unfolds, it reveals a deep conspiracy of class warfare, corruption, and revenge in Plymouth's restaurant scene. The case comes to a climax in the ruins of the original Harvest Feast restaurant, where Alice has gathered the surviving conspirators for a final deadly dinner party. With help from an unexpected ally in Elizabeth Blackwood, Alice's revenge extends beyond simple murder to expose decades of corruption, ultimately transforming Plymouth's restaurant industry and establishing a legacy of justice through a culinary scholarship fund for working-class students.
