These series concerns the Quilliam sisters: Sarah and artist, Meg, a master chef. After Sarah's divorce and the death of Meg's husband, the two move to Hemlock Falls, a small town in New York to run a bed and breakfast.

The individual stories can be charming in a screwball sort of way, but I find them dull after a while. Either things stay infuriatingly the same, or they change in a bizarre abrupt fashion; there is no real development. Of course, my disinterest in gourmet cooking doesn't help.

The volumes usually include at least one recipe. (

Hemlock Falls is a pretty little town in upstate New York. Sarah Quilliam, with her talent for business, runs the Inn at Hemlock Falls. Her sister, Meg, keeps the guests happy with her culinary abilities. But when it comes to murder, the Quilliam sisters have to rely on other skills--spotting clues, solving crimes, catching culprits... Death Dines Out The Quilliam sisters are thrilled to leave the Inn for a week in Palm Beach--even if their trip isn't exactly a vacation. In exchange for first-class tickets, the pair will help socialite Tiffany Taylor with her charity for phobic women. The deal sounds too good to be true--and it is. Shortly after their arrival, the sisters learn that the so-called charity is actually a ploy being used by Tiffany to humiliate her nasty ex-husband--and he is not amused. Caught in the middle of the fray, the sisters hope to help the Taylors finally bury the hatchet--before one of them has to bury the other...
