These are about octogenarians solving and sometimes perpetuating crimes, but mostly solving.

Cozy, funny.

I've ever, yeah.

Richard Osman.

Richard Osman.

Yes, yes, yes.

And there's nothing unsettling.

There's nothing gory.

It's just a good old fashioned, you know, mystery.

Non-cookbook.

I would start with Toast by Nigel Slater.

Odds are that Nigel might be new to this foodie.

He's a British food writer and cook, vegetable savant.

Toast is really about his childhood and his development of his taste and palate and sort of like coming alive.

Like that scene in Ratatouille when you have berries and then you have cheese and then you put them together in your mouth at the same time and it's like fireworks.

Like that's kind of what it's like, but more British and less...

Less rat-based?

Less rat-focused.

And although there is a great recollection of his living next door to nudists when he was a child, which is interesting.

And I trust the Brits to render that in appropriate and slightly inappropriate color.
