Readers are sure to fall in love with the Biltmore, its residents, and even New York City as they join the LaRue Detective Agency to solve yet another riveting mystery!”—Christyne Morrell, author of Curse of the Dead Man’s Diamond“Recipe for Robbery’s absorbing blend of humor and ‘whodunnit’ makes it an ideal story for early readers.”—Laura Segal Stegman, Author of The Chambered Nautilus “Author Colleen Nelson has written another romp of a mystery, perfect for young middle-graders, reluctant readers, and emerging readers.”—Los Angeles Book Review"(...) brings readers on a third detective adventure with Elodie LaRue. I love this series and the note at the end about the real New York locations that inspire the book are chef’s kiss!" –Picturebook Playdate IG“Mystery At The Biltmore: A Recipe For Robbery; recommended for ages 7-10 is a fun, lighthearted, mysterious, and delightful story! This is the third book in this phenomenal series and I have loved each one! When Eloise is faced with a challenging case she must decide whether it is more important to keep a spotless reputation or help someone in need.”––Murray’s Miraculous Mission IG“This is such a fun mystery! I loved the cute characters, and all the varied personalities of the neighbors. The mystery takes many twists and turns as Elodie tries to investigate every possible avenue of inquiry. Most of the time she hits a dead end, until one clue finally becomes clear. The writing is simple (just right for this age group), but it also has a charm and warmth that draws the reader into the story. Even reading as an adult, I really enjoyed it!”–– Luminous Libro“This book is wonderful for emerging readers, especially those with an interest in solving mysteries. The plot isn’t overly complicated, and Elodie clearly explains her detecting methods. I highly recommend younger readers give this book a shot!”––YA Book Central
