I've just submitted 'State of the Onion' by Julie Hyzy. It's a fabulous
adventure thriller! I've read it through, rank spelled it, stripped headers,
protected page numbers and chapter headings, and really enjoyed myself reading
it! It's a very easy validation and a great book!
Summary:
Never let them see you sweat - That's White House Assistant Chef Ollie Paras's
motto, which is pretty hard to honor in the most important kitchen in the
world. She's hell-bent on earning her dream job - executive chef. There's just
one thing her nemesis is trying for it, too. Well, that and the fact that an
elusive assassin wants to see her fry.
The highly trained Secret Service agents couldn't do it. The snipers swarming
the White House grounds were no help. Only Ollie Paras was able to stop the
intruder - hitting him with a frying pan. She'd like to wash her hands of the
whole thing, but after she witnesses a murder, there's no going back.
Ollie's Secret Service boyfriend warns her that the killer is a world-class
assassin. And Ollie's the only person alive who can recognize him. Still, guilt
propels her to investigate, even if it means putting herself - and her
relationship - in hot water.

"I want to be successful like everyone does, but through my idea of success. I
don't just mean that I will make a lot of money and be known for what I do, but
that I make a difference in someone's life."
