A baker with secrets.
Witches in trouble.
The cameras are rolling.
On your marks, get set, die.
Poppy Wilkinson is thrilled to be chosen as a contestant on The Great British Baking Contest. As an American with English roots, winning the crown as Britain’s Best Baker would open doors she’s dreamed of. In more ways than one. Appearing on the reality show is her chance to get into Broomewode Hall and uncover the secrets of her past.
But strange things are happening on the show’s set: Accusations of sabotage, a black cat that shadows Poppy, suspiciously unsociable residents at Broomewode Hall - and the judges can be real witches.
There are murmurs that Broomewode is an energy vortex. It certainly makes Poppy see and do things that aren’t exactly normal, and seems to draw interesting characters to the neighborhood.
When a fellow contestant dies in mysterious circumstances, Poppy has more to worry about than burned pies and cakes that won’t rise. There’s a murderer on the loose and it’s up to Poppy and her new friends to solve the crime before it becomes a real show-stopper.
From USA Today best-selling author Nancy Warren, this delicious series of cozy paranormal mysteries will have you guessing until the end. Includes recipes.

While she is participating in the show, she stumbles (literally) upon a dead body and soon Poppy is drawn into a murder mystery. On top of the stress of the show, the murder, and her quest for answers, she also finds out that she is a witch! All of these factors rolled together make for a highly entertaining book. Fans of TV baking shows will love it as the reader is pulled into the backstage workings of this type of show. Cozy mystery fans will enjoy Poppy's urge to find the murderer. The magical element to the book just makes it that much more fun!
The narrator does a great job and the different voices she uses for the characters make this a very enjoyable listen. If you are looking for a fun, quick and entertaining book to listen to as you go about your daily life, I highly recommend this one. I was given the chance to listen to the audiobook version of this book by the author and chose to review it.

Poppy, our contestant is cast as the "girl next door" in the Great British Bake Show. She was found as a baby on a doorstep wrapped in a special blanket. Although adopted and well cared for, has always wanted to know about her first family. As she grew older, Poppy also discovered she had an interesting talent. She could see and speak with ghosts. While flipping through channels, Poppy comes across a history of the estate where the Great British BakingShow is filmed and her eye catches on a shawl that has the same pattern as her baby blanket. Poppy comes to believe that the answers to her lost family must be connected to the estate.
Although Poppy enjoys baking and has a certain talent for it, her participation in the show is merely a ruse to investigate the estate where the show is filmed in order to find clues to her long lost family. If that weren't enough, during her first episode one of the contestants unexpectedly is murdered...and begins to haunt the tent (and pub) where the contestants are staying. Polly also discovers that she is a witch, and her ability to communicate with spirits is one of her powers.
Soon, Polly also learns that the two hosts of the show are also witches, as well as several of the locals. Using her intuition and skills of observation, Polly finds herself elbow-deep in batter, murder, magic, and mayhem. Will she sort it out and remain on the show so she can find her family, too, or will everything go up in smoke?
The Great Witches Baking Show is the first of (now 5) installments of this series. Mixing a potent recipe of murder, magic, and mystery, Nancy Warren's new cozy mystery series is sure to delight even the toughest of critics. A light read, the book will keep you going until the final timer and presentation. Who will be crowned "star baker" and who won't make the final cut?

I was surprised that this story kept my interest. I enjoyed listening to it and the narrator was very talented with all of the different accents that she used between the range of characters. I even caught myself thinking that I was thankful to have someone else pronounce the names of the characters because I never would’ve figured them out.
It wasn’t a very long story and it is book one of a pretty popular series. Poppy will have other mysteries to solve in future books, but in this one, she stumbles upon a fellow baking contestant that has been murdered and eventually realizes that she is a witch. Two major revelations that can only mean bigger adventures and twisting plots in the next few books.
New genre for me
