As someone who has worked in the food industry for quite some time and loves to bake and loves delicious food, I thought I would be all about this book. At first it was endearing but eventually I got tired of all the overly descriptive prose about food. It was just too much for me. And I did not find the process of them unraveling this mystery entertaining. I had to force myself to finish this audio book.
