A Cold Heart by Jonathan Kellerman:

Master at building psychological novels with surprising twists, Jonathan’s name is synonymous with interesting plots, penetrating into criminal’s minds and unrelenting action. Milo Sturgis, an LAPD homicide detective, summons his friend, Alex Delaware (a psych sleuth), to a gallery where a young artist was brutally killed on her first major showing night. On visiting the crime scene, Alex realized that it was not an impulsive crime, but the taunting and meticulous plan of a serial killer. Delaware and Milo found out that there is a connection between the noted blues guitarist’s murder and the artist’s death. As more murders are found, solving this maddening puzzle assumes new way, stopping a psychopath who has chosen cold-blood murder as his art form.

The Taste of Conquest by Michael Rondel:

A muddy walk through the history of legendary cities Amsterdam, Venice and Lisbon, whose heydays used to be connected to the fruitful spice trade.

Krondl’s The Taste of Conquest provides a globe-trotting, riveting story of fanatic religion, fickle fashion, unquenchable desire and mouthwatering cuisine or we can say everything our world is made up of. In this enlightening, anecdote-filled and engaging history, Michael, a food historian and chef turned writer, tells the tale of three great cities – Lisbon, Amsterdam and Venice and how their determined pursuit of spices enabled the Western diet and set the wave of globalization.

Michael exposes the myth that spices have been used for centuries to mask tasteless food. He tries to understand the need that enabled Europeans to conquer the world. At that time, spices were sort of luxury. People would use them as payment and exactly worth them as gold. The ones from exotic places represented the taste and aroma of paradise.

During the 16th and 17th centuries, the people around the world were brought together as an outcome of the spice trade. Prior to the great voyages of discoveries, the legendary city Venice used to control the business of Eastern seasonings and hence became most cosmopolitan urban center of medieval Europe.
