Book excerpt: The entire town of Rose Hollow, Maine is buzzing with excitement as the Grand Baking Tournament is set to begin. Held yearly, it's a chance for Rose Hollow to be put on the map, and for local bakers, like Becky Olson's friend Rachel Davis to shine at something she does well. Becky is less than excited. She never got the point of watching people bake. When a contestant is found murdered the day the tournament is supposed to begin, Becky is once again pulled into a world of intrigue and secrets. Everyone seems to be hiding something, and it's up to Becky to solve this murder before the tournament is over.
