A Cookbook Conspiracy by Kate Carlisle

4.0

Next in the Bibliophile mysteries for me, I was ecstatic to find this one in print at my local library. It's been a struggle for me to find the earlier ones in this series, though I'm happy that from here on out, it will be easier to obtain the remainder in this series. Brooklyn and her sister Savannah are featured in this one, along with her hunky boyfriend Derek and his equally hunky brother Dalton, who jets over from England to help out a bit. Savannah and fellow chef friends from their time at Le Cordon Bleu are taking turns cooking at a posh new restaurant for a fellow classmate, whom no one really likes. Surprise, surprise, he turns up dead! The mystery ensues and I admit, I was enjoying it so much, that I didn't quite figure this one out. Brooklyn is repairing a pre-Revolutionary era cookbook for Savannah to gift to the dead guy (which he receives right before he makes his exit), and the book has a lot of fascinating parts that a foodie like me really enjoyed. Bravo, really enjoyed this one :)
