Great premise! I enjoyed reading this one after some heavier books. I think I might've liked the ending better had it been revealed in a different order, but it was a good book overall. I was amazed at how well the characters were developed and introduced in the beginning. I hope to see more from this talented author!

Solid mystery with some dark bits, but mostly just a fun little book that poses the question, “what if a murder happened during bake-off?” Mind the trigger warnings.

Great (American) Bake Off play by play framed by a closed circle cozy murder mystery. Both overly simple and oddly compelling
