Last Aria: A Cooking Novel

One man's obsession is another man's dream. Two men are held captive by the beautiful Lilly LeClaire. The artist Garrett, by her presence in the ancient oil portraits that hang in a pre-civil war bed and breakfast, and William, by her haunting voice as she sings to him in his sleep. Night after night, she speaks to William through arias from Tosca, Julius Caesar and Madam Butterfly trying to convey her urgent message. From the author of "Talking Pictures," a cooking novella, Chef Elizabeth Podsiadlo spins another wonderful tale filled with excellent recipes, beautiful music, adventure and of course, a touch of the supernatural.
