Phyllis Richman, restaurant and food critic for the Washington Post wrote a wonderfully entertaining first novel last year, THE BUTLER DID IT. Look for it in paperback. Her second offering, MURDER ON THE GRAVY TRAIN, is even better. It is more involved with life in Washington as well as the restaurant world. She takes readers out to dinner while looking for clues to solve the mystery that may ruin her career of critical acclaim. A mouthwatering book from Harper Collins at $23.00 USA or $33.50 Canadian.
