Literary caterer Letitia 'Tish' Tarragon fights to save her reputation and catch a killer when a murder occurs during a fundraising dinner for the local library. Letitia 'Tish' Tarragon has just moved to Hobson Glen and opened a new restaurant and catering business, Cookin' the Books Cafe. So when her new landlord, Schulyer Thompson, recommends her to Binnie Broderick, the executive director of the local library, Tish is delighted. Binnie needs a last-minute caterer to create a literary inspired three-course dinner for the library's annual fundraiser, one of the highlights of Hobson Glen's social season. But there's a problem: Binnie Broderick is a notoriously difficult woman to please. And when she chokes to death from arsenic poisoning after dousing her main course in hot sauce, Tish suddenly finds herself fighting to save her business – and her reputation. It seems that very few of Hobson Glen's residents escaped Binnie's disapproval. But who would want her dead, and why?|Literary caterer Letitia 'Tish' Tarragon is delighted when Binnie Broderick, exective director of the local library, asks her to provide a literary inspired three-course dinner for the library's annual fundraiser.

      Starting a second career by founding a catering business is not simple; mix in murder, and Tish Tarragon is in for a rocky introduction to the tight-knit community of Hobson Glen. When Tish is asked to cater the biggest library fund-raising event of the year by the finicky director, Binnie, she thinks her Cookin' the Books Caf� and catering business is off to a great start. But things sure turn sour when Binnie dies in the middle of the event after eating her meal! With strong, supportive friendships and a budding romance, Tish races to solve the murder before her business dreams burn up in the frying pan. From the pun-filled title to the literature-inspired food, cozy-mystery fans will love Meade's newest novel. The full cast of characters creates a robust community that will make bibliophiles want to travel to Hobson Glen, Virginia, and partake in some tasty literary delights. Readers of Rita Mae Brown and Joanne Fluke should be excited by this new series.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2019, American Library Association.)
