Delivered
from the heart, mind and overworked taste buds of John DeMers,
Delicious Mischief is Houston's own food and wine radio show. Heard
weekly via the huge 50,000-watt signal of Radio News 740 KTRH,
the show also goes forth live on the World Wide Web, reaching places as
distant as Singapore and even Silsbee. John brings to his interviews
with local chefs and global winemakers the informed intelligence of 35
years in journalism, travel to 136 foreign countries and authorship of
38 books. Most of all, however, John insists that Delicious Mischief
has to be fun.

synopsis of Marfa Shadows....
Brett Baldwin is a Texas chef who keeps his life, his emotions, and especially his
restaurant Mesquite under careful control. But, when Meridyth Morgan, a
Hollywood star and Brett's high school love interest, shows up in
Marfa, Texas, and begs him to help find her missing brother and then is
kidnapped herself, Brett soon finds himself in a world of drug
smuggling, human trafficking, corruption, extortion, and murder. With
the support from his best friend Jud Garcia, an orphaned Native
American who raises bison and enjoys smoking illegal substances, Brett
embarks on a dangerous journey to reunite with Meridyth and must
confront some unfinished childhood business that, no matter how famous
he became as a chef, had kept him from truly becoming a man.
