{"product_id":"to-kill-a-cook","title":"To Kill a Cook","description":"A USA TODAY BESTSELLER\n\nTender at the Bone meets Finlay Donovan is Killing It in this hilarious, fast-paced mystery about a feisty food critic in 1970s NY who finds her chef friend murdered and realizes she might be the only one to find the killer.\n\nNobody in Manhattan eats better than Bernice Black. It’s 1972, and she is the city’s busiest restaurant critic, juggling her fiance and his two young sons with demands of fine dining. Bernice talks fast, walks faster, has a razor-sharp wit and no patience for anything--or anyone--that gets in her way.\n\nWhen she stops by the famed restaurant of her favorite chef and mentor, Laurent Tirel, early one morning, she stumbles across a horrific scene in the kitchen: Laurent's severed head, perfectly preserved in a flawless mold of jellied aspic.\n\nHer meeting with the cops assigned to the case proves only one thing–they know nothing about food or the seedy underworld that BB Black has made her home. With layoffs looming, Bernice makes the gamble of her career—she promises her editor she can catch Laurent’s killer before the week is out.\n\nTo Kill a Cook is a delicious, witty, fast-paced mystery with a lovable, unforgettable protagonist at it center.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0F7G3ZXYZ\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B0F7G3ZXYZ.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Akers, W.
