Torte, the small-town bakeshop no one can resist, is hosting a midsummer night’s wedding—where merry-making and murder are served up in equal measure, in Ellie Alexander’s eighth delectable novel in the Bakeshop mystery series.
Jules Capshaw has too much on her plate and she’s feeling the pinch: the whole town of Ashland, Oregon, is in on the surprise Elizabethan-themed wedding that she’s planning for her mother and soon-to-be stepdad. But is her secret scheme half-baked?
She is hiding racks overflowing with sweet treats while Torte is topsy-turvy with a major remodel and the return of Jules’s estranged husband, Carlos. And until now, Jules had no clue about the bitter family feud that has her friend Lance frazzled and suspicious.
But when a party crasher takes someone out with a serving of poisoned wine and Jules discovers the deadly cup was intended for her, it’s time to turn the tables on a killer.
