To celebrate the release of Breach of Crust, the 5th Charmed Pie Shoppe Mystery, I thought it would be fun to host a “pie question” contest. These questions are a mixture of questions based on facts from The Charmed Pie Shoppe books and your personal opinions or experiences, so everyone should be able to post a correct entry! A random winner will receive these enchanting Lennox Butterfly Meadow measuring spoons. Questions will appear below the blurb of Breach of Crust, which comes out April 5th.
Plate up another slice of Southern magic and mystery from the New York Times bestselling author of Lemon Pies and Little White Lies . . .
PIE SHELLS AND DEATH BELLES
Ella Mae LeFaye’s delicious pies are still drawing long lines—as well as the attention of Beatrice Burbank, president of the Camellia Club, a philanthropic organization comprised of high-society Southern ladies from the charming and affluent town of Sweet Briar, Georgia. To ensure the success of their centennial dessert cookbook, Bea hires Ella Mae to teach the tasty tricks of her trade to the club’s members at their annual retreat. Eager to work on new recipes for customers with food allergies and dietary restrictions, Ella Mae readily agrees.
But when Ella Mae finds Bea’s body floating in Lake Havenwood, she wonders what she’s gotten herself mixed up in. Someone certainly wanted Bea to eat humble pie, and the retreat offers no shortage of unsavory characters, including Ella Mae’s longtime nemesis, Loralyn Gaynor. Ella Mae definitely doesn’t need magic to tell her she must find the killer before someone else gets panned.
