Gourmet cuisine, UFO-chasers, and government conspiracies collide in this cosmic culinary caper...


Angie Amalfi is sure she's finally come up with the perfect career-owner and head chef of Fantasy Dinners, bringing fantasies to life through catered dinner parties. But when her only clients turn out to be the eccentric members of a group of devoted UFO-chasers and government conspiracy connoisseurs, she realizes she's cooking with a whole new set of ingredients. As she concocts dishes to satisfy their extraterrestrial appetites, Angie stumbles upon a saucer-sized mystery.


At the same time, San Francisco Homicide Inspector, Paavo Smith, finds himself knee-deep in several murders as mysterious as Area 51, and as gruesome as stories involving "extraterrestrial abductions."


Angie finds herself drawn ever deeper into a whirlpool of Men in Black, Roswell lore, and suspicious sightings. When she finds a connection between her clients and Paavo's investigations, she fears she's rocketed herself her into a close encounter that has nothing to do with the food aliens eat. Will Angie and Paavo solve the mystery before it's lights out for our favorite Earthlings?


Strap in for a supernova adventure. The truth is out there!


Note: This is a fully rewritten and reimagined rendering of an earlier mystery, A Cook in Time.
