Over the course of the book, Ellie gains confidence, a friend, a new career and maybe even the guy, as the action takes her from the Menorah kitchens to an out of control fight at a mahjong game and a revelatory visit to gambling casino, culminating in a confrontation with a crazed murderer. Ellie’s recipes included. If you loved Agatha Christie’s Miss Marple, the Golden Girls and Harry Kemelman’s Rabbi Small, you won’t want to miss “Long in the Sleuth”.
