Overview

My enchanting life in the cute village of Audley St. Mary becomes as unstable as a chocolate tower cake when I discover a body at the food fair! Was it revenge, jealousy, or true love turned sour grapes? I'm loving being a part of the friendly community in my quaint little home. I'm making friends, enjoying a mild (and innocent) flirtation with Lord Rupert, and making extravagant treats in the huge kitchen in Audley Castle. But when I get involved in volunteering at the prestigious annual food fair in the castle grounds, I'm shocked to learn about the death of a visiting pie seller. And it was no accident. When the castle's head of security tells me to keep my nose out as I ask a few questions, I know I should listen, but I can never resist a puzzle. Rather than focusing on perfecting my entry for the Audley Castle baking contest, I ask how a pie slicer got stuck in a man's back in a crowded food fair! As I investigate the victim's life (and death) I learn about his shady business dealings. Could that be the reason he was killed? Or does the presence of an ex-girlfriend have something to do with it? Join me as I bake, snoop, enjoy goat yoga, and avoid trouble as I solve this murder. Is this a case of too many pie makers and not enough crust? I'm determined to find out. *** Welcome back to the sleuthing adventures of Holly Holmes and Meatball the dog in this complete cozy culinary series. Enjoy mysteries, treats, puzzles, and see if you can spot the clues in this delicious read before your sleuths do. Can you figure out whodunnit? Recipe included!
