I just finished a tasty new mystery by Sarah Weeks all about one of my favorite foods, pie. It involves a cat, an unexpected death, and the secret of an award winning pie crust recipe.
Alice has recently lost her aunt Polly when she finds out that Polly left her cat, Lardo in Alice's care, and that the award-winning pie crust recipe has been left to the cat. With everyone in town after the recipe, Alice and Lardo are in danger where ever they turn until they figure out the mystery of the pie crust. Each chapter starts out with a recipe for pie that will make your mouth water as you follow Alice and her friend Charlie to the clues they need.
PIE is a great rainy day mystery that may even inspire you to bake your own pie.
