The final four mysteries from a Cordon Bleu chef, featuring an
“appealing detective [who] serves up nuggets of culinary trivia and
wry foodie humor” (People). They call him the gourmet detective.
From his home in London to the culinary capitals of Europe and beyond,
he is known for his sharp mind and even sharper palate. When chefs
need a rare ingredient or a new idea to gain that extra Michelin-star
boost, they come to him. And when cases turn deadly, he has a most
exquisite way of catching killers. “The Gourmet Detective
is . . . a delight. [The series] provides terrific writing,
characters that come to life on the page, and wonderful information on
gourmet cooking and the food industry” (Stuart M. Kaminsky, Edgar
Award–winning author). A Healthy Place to Die: While relaxing at
the Swiss Alpine Springs spa, the gourmet detective gets knocked out
cold and loses his date. As he searches for the vanished woman, he
soon discovers this is one resort that is not good for his health.
Eat, Drink and Be Buried: At a medieval fair, the gourmet detective is
hired to oversee a historically accurate menu for the banquets. But
when a knight falls to the ground after a joust, poisoned, the famous
food-finder must find a killer—and prove chivalry is not dead.
Roux the Day: When a Big Easy bookseller who claimed to have the
priceless missing cookbook of the legendary Louisiana Belvedere family
restaurant turns up dead, the gourmet detective leads the chase
through New Orleans for the stolen recipes and a killer thief. Dine
and Die on the Danube Express: Some of the most glamorous figures in
the world have booked passage on the twenty-fifth anniversary trip of
the transcontinental Danube Express, and riding among them is the
gourmet detective. But when a Hungarian actress disappears, it’s the
beginning of a first-class mystery.
