On the Slab Pie
The pie crust is tender, but the case is tough!
It all starts with a body.
Erin thought she’d seen and heard it all. In Bald Eagle Falls, everyone seemed not only to know everyone else’s business, but to discuss it at length. Yet she had always assumed that her neighbor Mrs. Peach, who had no man in her life, was widowed.
Mr. Peach’s unexpected reappearance, a prison breaking, and a body in the woods combine to form the toughest case yet for the gluten-free baker to solve!
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ I enjoyed this book immensely! There were so many twists and turns that I was unable to figure out who committed the crimes. If Erin hadn’t helped Mr. Peach home, the culprit would have gotten away with the crimes. Can you figure out this mystery?
Like baking mysteries? Cats, dogs, and other pets? Award-winning and USA Today Bestselling Author P.D. Workman brings readers back to small town Bald Eagle Falls for another culinary cozy mystery to be solved by gluten-free baker Erin Price and her friends.

Change is hard in a small Southern town, especially when it brings a side of murder.
