Critics Review
Praise for A Literary Dining Mystery Series
“Allie’s ensuing investigation hits all the requisite beats: there are well hidden clues, hints of romance with a local cop, and recipes for quiches and cakes. This gets the job done.” —Publishers Weekly on Murder by the Millions
“Gerber combines the hallmarks of a great cozy mystery—books, baking, and a cat named Darcy—in this charming series starter that ends with a few recipes.” —Booklist on Murder on the Page
“Foodies and Jane Austen fans alike will delight in this charming mystery.” —Kirkus Reviews on Murder on the Page
“While Allie tries to clear Tegan’s name and nurses a secret crush on Zach, Gerber methodically hits all the familiar cozy beats, including a timely intervention by Allie’s cat, Darcy.” —Publishers Weekly on Murder on the Page
“Lightly-themed around Jane Austen’s Pride And Prejudice, this culinary cozy series debut perfectly hearkens to the romance and manners of its inspiration even as it presents a very modern murder mystery.” —Criminal Element on Murder on the Page
