Food

Mystery Books

• Elaine Viets’ “Dead-End Job” series. It was fun that the author was stern to the heroine in the first few books of the series, but gradually the heroine becomes a woman of non-special characteristics.
•  Deborah Crombie’s “Duncan Kincaid & Gemma James” series. Not many are on sale as Kindle format.
