Blood Red Chianti

 Murder in Chianti by Camilla Trinchieri is about a murder in the location of where Chianti comes from.  Nico Doyle moves to this area because his recently deceased came from there, and they traveled back and forth from the USA to Tuscany, often.

Nico is a retired cop, so when a murder happens, he is asked to advise.  The victim used to live in the village but moved to California.  He did very well and returned as a millionaire.  Before he left, he might have left a pregnant girl.  He believes he did, which is why he came back.  Unfortunately, he is murdered before he finds out who really is his daughter. 

The killer would involve a spoiler.  I will tell you this.  The killer was paid well.  Now you figure out who did it.

I read this book in the first place, because I need to read a book about food.

There was a lot of food, in this story.  Nico works in a restaurant belonging to his wife's family.  It becomes his family.  Actually, it's a small village and everyone is family.  It's a cute story that will keep you guessing.
