The only thing Eleanor Swift loves more then A Slice of Delight—her Timber Ridge, North Carolina pizzeria—is her sister Maddy. So when Maddy's cheating ex-husband Grant shows up with some pie-in-the-sky idea to win Maddy back, Eleanor is happy to see her sister swiftly show him the door. But they both know Grant isn't done yet, especially when he picks a fight with Maddy's fiancé Bob in front of the whole town. Naturally, when Grant is later found stabbed in the heart with a barbeque skewer, Bob is featured on the police chief's menu as Suspect #1. And when it turns out that Maddy stands to gain a different kind of dough—and lots of it—from Grant exiting this world, she and Eleanor know it's up to them to cook up an investigation to find the real killer. . .or their next scrumptious pizza may be their last!

Includes a delicious pizza recipe!

      In Cavender’s delightful sixth Pizza Lovers mystery (after 2012’s Killer Crust), the residents of Timber Ridge, N.C., including Eleanor Swift, owner of A Slice of Delight, the local pizzeria, and her sister, Maddy Spencer, have spent weeks preparing for Timber Ridge’s largest annual celebration, the Founders Day Festival. On the day of the fair, Maddy’s ex-husband, Grant Whitmore, shows up and picks a fight with Maddy’s fiancé, Bob Lemon. That evening, someone stabs Grant in the heart with a barbecue skewer, as Eleanor and Maddy later learn from police chief Kevin Hurley, who fingers Bob as the most likely murder suspect. When the sisters set out to clear Bob’s name, they discover that plenty of others had motives for the crime. Each suspect is a distinctive character, and, as usual, Cavender does a fine job capturing the feel of a small North Carolina town and its people. Agent: John Talbot, Talbot Fortune Agency.
