Murder is a Piece of Cake by Valerie Burns

4.5

I liked the first one, but reading this one made me realize what an arc the author is planning and executing! The first book introduced our charming if silly heroine, her world, and the many characters of New Bison. The second has launched a riveting conspiracy that had me gasping at the last twenty pages as a few of the pieces started to come together about who the mastermind behind all of the town’s troubles may actually be. I’m going to have to put a note on my calendar for when the sequel comes out next year to remind me of just how many balls are in the air that are sure to come crashing down (wonderfully, murderously) in book three. 

The best kind of “happy for now” ending a murder mystery can have, I think. Solved for now … real and final answers still to come!
