In this seventh entry in Krista
Davis’ fabulous “Domestic Diva Mystery”
series, Sophie Winston is involved in helping her friend Nina
with the “Cupcakes and Pupcakes” event. The event
will raise money to help animal shelters, a wonderful and
noble cause.
Yet not everyone in town is wonderful or noble. There are
enough bakeries in the area to serve everyone, but suddenly
there is yet another cupcake bakery, a start-up owned by a
former partner at the Sugar Baby Bakery. An underhanded move
if ever there was one, the trauma of such a down and dirty
trick is nothing compared to the murder of the Sugar Baby
baker, Muffin.
As you might suspect, Sophie is smack in the middle of things
because she and her friend Humphrey found the body, and the
killer must be someone she knows. Sophie doesn’t want
to crack another murder case, but really, how can she leave
this one alone?
Davis paints her characters with such a fine brush that readers
(well me anyway!) can picture them and actually hear their
voices. You'll find drama, romance, intrigue and humor in
"The Diva Frosts a Cupcake."
This is a delicious entry into a fun and fast-paced mystery
series, which cozy lovers are sure to savor. Just be sure
you have some cupcakes or hand, or at least the ingredients
to bake some. The back of the book has some great baking tips
and recipes. Enjoy!
