Trouble always comes in threes. At least that's what Lucky O'Toole, the VP of Customer Relations for Las Vegas' primo Strip casino/hotel, the Babylon, has heard. So, tonight, when Teddie, her former lover shows up at her office unannounced and unexpected, a cadre of celebrity chefs with the maturity of teenagers arrives at the Babylon for a televised cook-off, and Lucky's current lover, Jean-Charles Bouclet stops answering his phone leaving Lucky to handle his five-year-old son, Lucky figures she has tonight's compliment of chaos covered.
As usual, she is a tad optimistic.
When a prized Alba truffle is stolen from the walk-in in Jean-Charles' restaurant and a young chef apparently killed with a smoking gun is found in Jean-Charles' food truck on the back lot, trouble takes a sinister turn.
And Jean-Charles still isn't answering his phone.
Desperate to put a lid on the body count and more than frantic over her AWOL lover, Lucky uses her Vegas contacts to search in places and in ways the police wouldn't or couldn't. Teddie insists on riding shotgun. Lucky has never been able to resist Teddie ... not really. With danger dogging their heels, Lucky finds herself falling once again under his spell as they traverse Vegas, drawn deeper and deeper into the highly competitive world of high-end eateries and the battle for the very rare, most highly prized gourmet foodstuffs.
And when Lucky's path crosses the killer's... will her goose be cooked?
