A groom-to-be is cut down at his engagement party, and solving the case won't be a piece of cake. . . Shilpa Solanki's talent is making sure that special occasions are accompanied by special cakes, and her first booking after her move to Devon, England—where she's inherited a house in Otter's Reach—is a posh engagement party for Mason Connolly and Harriet Drew. Unfortunately, a knife has been used for something other than cutting the cake. Now Shilpa is working to uncover layers of secrets and scandals in hopes of identifying the killer who permanently parted Mason and Harriet—and before she's done, someone else might get iced. . .

Shilpa Solanki mysteries

A Slice of Murder

It's an unhappy birthday when murder crashes the party—but luckily, a sleuthing baker is in the mix… 

Shilpa Solanki has settled into life in Otter's Reach, and her cakes are selling like… well, hotcakes. When tycoon Roy Arden turns eighty, Shilpa caters the event—but the party's over when it turns out it was Roy's last birthday. 

Roy's daughter, Caroline, asks Shilpa to investigate, and delving into the Arden family dysfunction provides a surfeit of suspects: the much-younger second wife; the gardener-turned-son-in-law Roy never approved of; the brother he had a strained relationship with. 

Then Caroline turns up dead, too, and Shilpa has to burn the candle at both ends to find the culprit in this cozy culinary mystery by the author of A Slice of Murder.
