Not only is this a great murder mystery, but you get to learn something as well. The book, in the course of the murder investigation goes into the history and the making of sourdough bread. This is one of Julie Smith better mysteries.
San Francisco, food, and murder! What more do you need?

This is one of my favorite mysteries. I love San Francisco and its wonderful sourdough bread, but that's only part of the attraction for this mystery. The characters really pull you into this book They're so real...you get to know them and their quirks quickly. Rebecca Schwartz is a self-described "Jewish feminist lawyer" who becomes involved in a legal tangle over a top-secret sourdough starter sample. The tangle turns into murder, and Rebecca, her law partner, and her investigative reporter boyfriend are up to their necks in the action. A good mystery with great characters...you almost hate to see it end! Fortunately, Julie Smith has penned a few other Rebecca Schwartz mysteries that are good reads, also. I just wish she'd write more!
