Murder by the Slice

When Kate Reed returns to her Colorado hometown to take over the family’s bakery café, she’s ready for a rewarding new adventure. Sky High Pies, a treasured local landmark in tiny Crescent Creek, promises to be the exact opposite of Kate’s hectic, hazardous life as a private investigator in Chicago. After a dozen topsy-turvy years in the Windy City—disrupted most recently by three devastating twists of fate—Kate’s ready for the change. As she settles into a new routine in the Rocky Mountains, everything’s going as planned. Until, that is, perilous ripples from her previous life threaten Kate and everyone around her. When an FBI agent is killed and the suspected murder weapon is found at Sky High Pies covered with Kate’s fingerprints, she instinctively returns to PI mode to help local authorities identify the killer and prevent any additional deaths—including her own. Murder by the Slice, Book 1 in the Sky High Pies Cozy Mystery series, includes a tasty trio of Nana Reed’s Sky High recipes!
