About Julie Hyzy

Anthony and Barry Award winner Julie Hyzy is the national bestselling author of the White House Chef Mystery series featuring the intrepid Olivia (Ollie) Paras, and the Manor House Mystery series featuring mansion curator Grace Wheaton.


Affairs of Steak -- a NYT bestseller -- is now available in paperback and e-book versions.


White House executive chef Olivia Paras just wants to create first class cuisine for the First Family. Unfortunately, dangerous politics keep spoiling her recipes...

Affairs of Steak by Julie Hyzy

Assigned to work with her arch nemesis, Peter Everett Sargeant, the White House Sensitivity Director, Ollie must find a venue for an event to honor the Secretary of State. Instead they find one of the First Lady's assistants and the Chief of Staff, both murdered -- and Ollie and Peter may have witnessed the killer making his getaway.

News reports suggest that the assistant and Chief of Staff were having an affair, but no one on the staff believes the rumor. Now, with their jobs--and their lives--in jeopardy, Ollie and Peter must depend on each other to learn who killed their colleagues and why--before they become the next victims of a merciless assassin with a secret agenda...

Praise for Julie Hyzy's novels:

State of the Onion, first in the White House Chef Mystery series:
"A compulsively readable whodunit full of juicy behind-the-Oval-Office details, flavorful characters, and a satisfying side dish of red herrings..."

~ Publishers Weekly

Grace Under Pressure, first in the Manor House Mystery series:
"Hyzy creates the well-researched and believable estate of Marshfield Manor, part mansion and part museum...Well-drawn characters like busybody secretary Frances, handsome landscape architect Jack, and stalking wannabe Ronny are supported by lively subplots, laying series groundwork to rival Marshfield Manor's own elaborate structure."

~ Publishers Weekly, STARRED REVIEW
