For the mystery lovers, this episode has you covered too! It may also be your favorite episode in the series since it is really hard to figure out the identity of the murderer. The sibling issues created by a blended family makes almost everyone, except the father, a suspect.
Plus, a new character is added when Harry's father comes for a visit.
Many of us already feel a connection to Jim Ross because the part is played
by Bruce Boxleitner. We have watched this beloved veteran actor in
several movies and popular TV series, which included
Scarecrow and Mrs. King, where he played a spy. Therefore, it is not a far stretch to see
him play the part of a retired police officer in the Gourmet Detective.
Eat, Drink and Be Buried Synopsis
Gourmet Detective: Eat, Drink and Be BuriedCheck PriceHenry is both a guest and menu consultant to create an authentic 1700's dinner for the event hosted by David Weston. Of course, he takes Maggie as his date for the party. What neither of them expect is to witness a murder and end up working as detectives.
During an authentic pistol duel reenactment between the brothers, one of them is really murdered because one of the pistols was loaded with real ammunition. The surviving brother seems upset by the unexpected murder even though the two brothers were already "dueling" for their father's favor. The dead brother's biological sister is also devastated. However, both siblings are suspects, along with their other sister. They are all employees of their father's company, as well as heirs. The inheritance has just multiplied for each remaining sibling, therefore, they each had an incentive to murder.
As with all families, there is a lot of history as well as rivalries, and blended families don't always make a great mix. But, murder is a bit extreme.
