From Little Stack

Your mouth will be watering reading this winter-set story in the long-running Bakeshop Mysteries series.

Winter is quiet for Jules and her small-town bakery, until she’s asked to cater a retreat for leaders of the state Shakespeare festival. Jules is game, but she’s chilled to the bone to discover the body of a bartender in a freezer at the event. Not to mention her ex-husband is on the suspect list.

A determined main character, tantalizing culinary mystery, and descriptions of delicious baked goods make this a book to savor with a warm treat by your side.

Publisher Description

Welcome to Torte—a small-town family bakeshop where the treats are killer good. It's the dead of winter in the sleepy town of Ashland, which means no tourists—and fewer customers—for Jules Capshaw and her bakery. But when she's asked to cater an off-season retreat for the directors of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, business starts heating up...until Jules finds a dead body in the freezer.

Someone at the retreat has apparently iced the bartender, a well-known flirt with a legendary temper—that is, before a killer beat him to the punch. Then, from out of nowhere, Jules's own ex-husband shows up at the shop—and soon becomes a suspect. With accusations piling up higher than the snow—and thicker than a chocolate mousse cake—Jules has to think outside the (recipe) box to find the real culprit...and make sure he gets his just desserts.
