Bernie Sanders and his millennial aide are drawn into a murder investigation in a small Vermont town in this hilarious spin on cozy mysteries from the New York Times bestselling author of Hope Never Dies: An Obama Biden MysteryBernie Sanders is on summer break from the Senate. In true “man of the people” fashion, he’s working at the Vermont Country Store in Eagle Creek, a quiet, picturesque resort community on Lake Champlain. After a long day chatting up voters from behind the register, he likes to unwind at his shoreline cabin with a nice cup of decaf and a cozy mystery.When a local farmer’s body washes on shore at the Summer Jazz Festival, however, there’s nothing “cozy” about it.

100 plant-based Mexican, Colombian, and Salvadoran recipes to transform normally meat-heavy dishes into vegan celebrations of family and home. When Edgar Castrejon adopted a vegan lifestyle as a college student away from home for the first time, he worried he would no longer fit in at the table with his family. Growing up in a diverse neighborhood in Oakland, the proud first-generation Mexican American had spent countless hours cooking alongside his mom, aunts, and grandmother in the kitchen, where family recipes were passed down through las manos magicas rather than written notes. Realizing that following a plant-based diet made him feel better, but wanting to continue enjoying the flavors of authentic Mexican and Latin American cuisines, Edgar began transforming traditional, meat-heavy recipes into inventive, plant-based creations. Provecho (the Spanish expression for wishing someone a good meal) is a celebration of food and family, honoring the traditional recipes of Mexican culture

Jasmine Roth, host of HGTV's hit shows Hidden Potential and Help I Wrecked My House, demystifies the home reno (and the home reno show) in House Story.
