Accompanying them are a celebrated American actor, a guide from the spiritual sect he has embraced, his powerhouse agent intent on separating him from this sect, two British financiers and a burgeoning legion of would-be money-men bent on getting in on the action. Filmmaking takes second place on the set as the players scramble for position in a murderous game of multiple upmanship. The beautiful, exotic country of Panama, the backdrop of Kit Sloane's latest sexy romp of a mystery, takes its place on the platform of her pages as well, showing U.S. readers the awesome scenery of this vibrant country and its cosmopolitan peoples.

What reviewers are saying:

EXTREME CUISINE: In their fifth adventure, film editor Margot O'Banion and movie director Max Skull investigate when Max's consultant on his new movie, celebrity-chef Robert Madrid, dies in the same manner as a character in the film. Complicating matters, Margot's good friend Loretta Rose Cinefucco, who has come to L.A. to manage the film studio's executive dining room in preparation for opening her own restaurant, was seeing Robert at the time of his death. Another murder follows at the new wine bar connected to a hot restaurant owned by Madrid's brother, Carlos Estrella. Are the deaths connected? Details of the restaurant business, insight into why dinner at a trendy restaurant "provides an evening of theater," and a behind-the-scenes look at filmmaking frame the story. Well-developed characters and a further developing romantic relationship between Margot and Max make for an enjoyable addition to a too-little-known series. ---Sue O'Brien, Booklist

EXTREME CUISINE is a humorous look at the Hollywood scene, which includes agendas, the seamier side of movie-making, and Margot O'Banion's metamorphosis from retiring film editor to amateur sleuth. Sloane gives a good bird's eye view of the movie business along with the aberrant personalities. The result is a delightful and, at times, laughter-inducing and lighthearted look at murder, cuisine, and the temptations of the flesh. Sloane has a definite eye for the absurd, and she also knows how to entertain. EC is a delightful read, and Sloane's characters cry out for an encore.---Shelley Glodowski, Senior Reviewer, Midwest Book Review
