DYING FOR CHOCOLATE

This is the perfect audiobook for gourmets who love murder mysteries. The listener can enjoy descriptions of delicious meals while digesting clues. Reader Barbara Rosenblat sounds just like our Colorado caterer heroine should sound, and the other characters are also well portrayed. While this will be a popular selection, it’s true that the listener must be patient and listen to lengthy descriptions of family problems and kitchen disasters. The last tape contains the caterer’s recipes. It would be more useful to include a printed list of recipes in the cassette case instead of on tape.
