Publisher's summary

The first time Daisy Ellery killed a man with a pie, it was an accident. Now, it’s her calling. Daisy bakes sweet vengeance into her pastries, which she and her dog, Zoe, deliver to the men who’ve done dirty deeds to the town’s women. But if she can’t solve the one crime that’s not of her own baking, she’ll be out of the pie pan and into the oven.

Parking her Pies Before Guys mobile bakery van outside the local diner, Daisy is informed by Frank, the crusty diner owner, that someone’s been prowling around the van—and not just to inhale the delectable aroma. Already on thin icing with Frank, she finds a letter on her door, threatening to reveal her unsavory secret sideline of pie à la murder.

Blackmail? But who whipped up this half-baked plot to cut a slice out of Daisy’s business? Purple-haired campus do-gooder Melly? Noel, the tender—if flaky—farm boy? Or one of the abusive men who prefer their pie without a deadly scoop of payback?

The upcoming statewide pie contest could be Daisy’s big chance to help wronged women everywhere…if she doesn’t meet a sticky end first. Because Daisy knows the blackmailer won’t stop until her business is in crumbles.

Just read it!

If you’re a fan of cozy mysteries (and can handle just the tiniest bit of magic), read this book. One of my very favorite that I’ve found on Audible

Good story to zone out to

I love amateur sleuth stories, but this took awhile to get to the point. it's bubbly and carefree. no deep thinking needed. keeps your attention while wondering if the mystery is as bad as its presented to be.

I love the story.

I love this story I thought that it wasn't going to be a good book but it was. It dragged a little but over all the book was very good and I enjoyed it.

Not a fan

I probably am the wrong audience for this story. I should’ve realized from the premise but I was lured in by the narrator who I really enjoy as well as the reviews comparing it to the books by Ellery Adams. Didn’t really like the main character or her world view. As for the comparison to Ellery Adams, I guess I can see it sort of but the off-putting elements just turned me off

Normally cozies are a little bland for me. This one kept me engaged and I really enjoyed the premise.

Weird

This book weirds me out. It’s a feisty, cutesy tale of a serial killer. Too much politics. I can’t finish it. The narrator is excellent.

Was hoping for growth in the main character

Too much men are evil and down with the patriarchy. I was interested in the mystery but if strong views of any such nature are so prevalent I want discussion that explores the subject.
