Neil Flambé and the Toyko Treasure

By Kevin Sylvester

Book Overview

Something smells fishy--and it's not the sushi--in this addition to the culinary mystery series celebrity chef Gordon Ramsey calls "good fun." World-class chef Neil Flamb isn't thrilled when his cousin Larry moves to Japan to work on an online manga comic book. Now who'll help him in the kitchen? But he finds a replacement in Gary the bike courier, and life, and the restaurant, moves on without Larry. That is, until the news that life may have really left Larry behind--he's been lost at sea. Neil is devastated. But then he checks Larry's online manga. There's a subtle change in the plot, something Neil and Larry had discussed--something only Neil would notice. Is this a cryptic message from beyond the grave--or is Larry still alive? Determined to find out, Neil heads to Japan to solve his next mystery.
