Publisher's summary

Virginia is for lovers - and Storyton Hall is its best vacation spot for lovers of books. The big event this summer at Jane Steward's resort is A Bookish Cook-Off. It's a blend of the literary and the culinary - but someone's headed for the mortuary....

Six chefs are preparing to compete in an outdoor tent at Storyton Hall for prizes that will boost their careers - but is there someone who can't stand the heat? It looks that way when one of the contestants is found dead in a pantry packed with two centuries' worth of cookbooks, among other treasures and rarities.

Could there be a connection to other recent events in town, like tampering with the costume of a local mascot? Jane isn't sure, but after someone serves a second course of murder, the kitchen must be closed and the killer must be found....

Series of 7 books, so far!

This was a wonderful series of books. Each book continues the original story with more excitement. It’s entertaining, witty, mysterious, and romantic. I have read every book now & may read them again to pick up on all the dialogue I might have missed the first time around.

Another Killer Story

I’m a huge fan of this series. Ellery Adams has created likable and quirky characters, set in a dreamy book retreat. I love all the literary references, the mysteries, and the various groups that visit the resort. Hosting a cooking show is a terrific choice for this next installment. Murderously delicious.

Another wonderful story

I have enjoyed all of the books in this series. Ellery Adams has established herself as one of my favorite authors. I have read/listened to three other series by her. this book was enhanced for me by a "guest appearance" of Olivia Limoges and Captain Haviland from the Books by the Bay series. I believe it's time to revisit that series and dip into a new one.

21st CENTURY STORY !!

I have Listen to many of these stories. I'm amazed At all the alcohol consumption there was in this story Why have alcohol When you should be having lemonade? Did you count how many times Do you need a drink meaning alcohol Was said in the story?? 1st word spoken do you need a drink ?Always alcohol Always alcohol.I don't remember Everybody drinking alcohol in these books before.Having a drink on the weekend Or some special occasion Would be acceptable. When did it become acceptable For a women with children to have a man in her bed without marrying him....What has happened to morals ??Will not Listen to another one of your stories Unless she makes them cozy again!
