In "Pheasant in Aspic," Bat Lash—floral hat, sharp wit, and a fondness for fine dining—finds himself in a town where the menu hides a deadly secret. After fleeing a jealous suitor and shooting a pheasant for dinner, he sets out to enjoy a meal in Welcome, only to discover that every ingredient comes with a price. With his usual mix of charm and chaos, he clears the town of troublemakers, unaware that the cook who prepared his meal has a far more personal vendetta. The meal may be the last thing he remembers.
