Sometimes, baking gets a little too competitive. Occasionally, it turns deadly. When Bitsie is confronted by a faded celebrity baker claiming that Bitsie has stolen the woman's prize banana cream frosting recipe, Bitsie tries to shrug off the incident as being the ravings of an unhinged has-been.
But instead fading from view, the frosting-obsessed eccentric becomes the central figure in not one but two suspicious deaths in Little Creek.
Joined by her semi-retired police officer brother, Stan, and her too-handsome-to-be-real bakeshop assistant, Nick, Bitsie uses her natural nosiness to see that justice is served, and no sweet-tooth in Little Creek is left unsatisfied.

I have enjoyed the whole series! I'm relatively new to self-pub cozy mysteries so I found this one in particular to be full of twists that had me on the edge of my seat. I hope the author writes more of these!
I enjoyed the ease of reading this series. The characters kept to their roles predictably. Going through a crisis this series was just what the doctor ordered.
