Daisy Ellerys pies have a secret ingredient: The magical ability to avenge women done wrong by men.But Daisy finds herself on the receiving end in Misha Popps cozy series debut, a sweet-as-buttercream treat for fans of Ellery Adams and Mary Maxwell.

The first time Daisy Ellery killed a man with a pie, it was an accident. Now, its her calling. Daisy bakes sweet vengeance into her pastries, which she and her dog Zoe deliver to the men whove done dirty deeds to the towns women. But if she cant solve the one crime thats not of her own baking, shell 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 someones been prowling around the vanand 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 a la murder.

Blackmail? But who whipped up this half-baked plot to cut a slice out of Daisys business? Purple-haired campus do-gooder Melly? Noel, the tenderif flakyfarm boy? Or one of the abusive men who prefer their pie without a deadly scoop of payback?

The upcoming statewide pie contest could be Daisys big chance to help wronged women everywhereif she doesnt meet a sticky end first. Because Daisy knows the blackmailer wont stop until her business is in crumbles.
