A group of girlfriends gather for a good-riddance brunch to celebrate a breakup, but then the ex turns up dead and everyone at the brunch has something to hide in this chilling new thriller by bestselling author Lisa Unger.

Ana Blacksmith has called together her closest friends and sister Vera for a festive brunch to celebrate her recent breakup from business mogul Paul Hayes. But when Paul’s body is discovered in a shallow grave and his new girlfriend goes missing, all eyes turn to Ana, the disgruntled ex. Suspicions only intensify when Ana’s best friend falls deathly ill after the brunch.

But Ana isn’t the only one who had scores to settle with Paul, a man with a storied history of violence and misconduct against women. And the list of people who will benefit from his death is long. As the investigation deepens, rumors of a secret network of women who use herbal remedies to help other women begins to emerge. Vengeance may be sweet, but is it sweet enough to poison?

Ana and Vera are determined to uncover the truth before the wrong person takes the fall and their own long-buried secrets come to light. Wickedly dark and deliciously twisty, A Dish Served Cold is a riveting thriller that shows you can never underestimate the power of a woman wronged.
