Enjoyable collection of foodrelated mystery stories by some accomplished writers, Like all anthologies, a little uneven, An interesting idea nicely carried out, What a grand love affair people have with food! The reason is obviously due to the fact that it is the only thing that can simultaneously delight all five senses.


Some people's appetite for food is only exceeded by their appetite for crime, As our demand for creative dishes has increased, so has the opportunity for evil epicureans to combine their talent for wickedness and their love of good food and drink to lay their victims low in one fell swoop with nothing more than a wellcooked meal or specially concocted libation.
This menu of eighteen stories of culinary crimes and death beckons everyone,
