Biggie and the Devil Diet
Nancy Bell. Minotaur Books, $22.95 (224pp) ISBN 978-0-312-30184-2
On the heels of 2001's Biggie and the Quincy Ghost comes Biggie and the Devil Diet, another installment in Nancy Bell's charming series featuring eccentric sleuth Biggie, her 13-year-old grandson, J.R., and the folks of Job's Crossing, Tex. A ranch converted to a retreat for overweight teenage girls, a lot of good eating (including a recipe for Willie Mae's King Ranch Casserole) and murder all contribute to the fun.
