![]() Agent: Christina Hogrebe, Jane Rotrosen Agency. Carlisle keeps the suspense high as Brooklyn sleuths her way through a host of chefs and other suspects to the satisfying resolution. She must also locate the now-missing cookbook, which may hold an important clue. Confident of her sister’s innocence, Brooklyn sets out to find the real killer. This is a wonderful series with super characters, fun and diverse and intelligent. I really did not think they could get any better, but low and behold this one is truly even greater. Ripped From the Pages Kate Carlisle 4.07 3,023 ratings365 reviews When book-restoration expert Brooklyn Wainwright temporarily relocates to her parents’ place in Northern California, she finds that wooden barrels aren’t the only things buried in the wine caves of Sonoma. Soon after, Brooklyn discovers Savannah in the kitchen kneeling over Baxter’s body with a bloody knife in her hand. Ripped From the Pages is the 9th in Kate Carlisle’s Bibliophile Mystery series and it is the best one yet. To Savannah’s surprise, the gift upsets Baxter, who excuses himself from the opening festivities. Baxter originally gave the rare volume to Savannah while they were both students at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris years before. Savannah plans to give it to her former boyfriend, celebrity TV chef Baxter Cromwell, at the opening of his new San Francisco restaurant. In chapter one of Carlisle’s well-plotted seventh bibliophile mystery (after 2012’s Peril in Paperback), book binder Brooklyn Wainwright agrees to repair a handwritten cookbook dated 1774 for her sister, Savannah. ![]()
