    “where a good crime C r i m e can be had by all” c h r o n i c l e Issue #217 February 2004 FEATURE TITLE... Earthly Delights by Kerry Greenwood (277pp Pb 19.95) Kerry Greenwood launches a new series, set in modern Melbourne and introducing Corinna Chapman, baker and reluctant investigator. Baking is an alchemical process for Corinna. At 4 a.m. she starts work at Earthly Delights, her bakery in Calico Alley. But one morning she receives a threatening note saying 'The wages of sin is death' and finds a syringe in her cat's paw. A blue-faced junkie has collapsed in the dark alley and a mysterious man with beautiful eyes appears with a plan for Corinna and her bread. Then it is Goths, dead drug addicts, witchcraft, a homeless boy and a missing girl and it seems she will never get those muffins cooked in time. With flair, chutzpah and a talent for kneading, Corinna will find out who exactly is threatening her life and bake some beautiful bread. This series is sure to please fans of the Phryne Fisher series and I look forward to the next instalment. - Peter 2 Modern Crime Guillermo ARRIAGA Margaret BEVEGE Sweet Scent of Death Decision Time 179pp Pb 23.50 160pp Pb 22.95 This third instalment to feature Jane ADAMS A gritty, violent, but cunningly crafted Elizabeth Ludowski, now firmly Angel Eyes rustic revenge tragedy set in a small established as a Police Commissioner’s 312pp Pb 22.00 Mexican village.
