Summary
Lipstick and lies, pastries and pies, plus a little poison thrown in the mix. Best friends, baking, and a body count - what's not to love?
Piper and Sam are excited to cater their first large event for a corporation’s weekend wellness retreat in a nearby town.
You know what that means? Road trip!
Piper thought it sounded like the perfect opportunity to clear her head of men. With things left unresolved with Griff, plus an old friend popping back into her life, her mind and heart are in worse shape than a batch of burnt cookies.
Unfortunately, the weekend goes pear-shaped in a hurry. A man is dead, and everyone at the retreat is a suspect.
Can Piper get out of this new pickle and solve the mystery in time to salvage the retreat and the catering job? Will Sam heed the warning to stay out of the police investigation? And will the Ooey Gooey Bakery survive the weekend without them?

A Ooey treat
I enjoyed this book. It started with the murder and then went back in time to explain what lead up to death. I am not sure that was the right way to go because it started out a bit confusing, especially as the murder didn't happen for a while but I still enjoyed and it didn't take too long get to catch up with who everybody was. The reason I liked it was because of the wonderful characters, particularly the teenagers left back at the shop and there mishaps. There is a nice love interest that keeps hitting road blocks but it to adds humour. Human trafficking is an unusual subject for a cozy mystery but I think the author balanced out the serious side of it with some nice humour and it was well done. The mystery was interesting and I liked how it played out, girl power. This is the second book in the series and even though it mentions the kidnapping from the first book (a lot) it still works well as a standalone. Just a fun mystery and I am off to start the next book.
Piper and Sam have had a busy couple of weeks and just want to turn there focus back into there bakery before they lose any more customers. Unfortunately they get asked to cater an entire weekend for a large corporate event that proves to good to turn down, even if it means leaving there shop in the hands of teenagers. To complicate things Grifs timing to confess his feeling for Piper isn't perfect and he rushes out when an old friend, Langdon, turns up. Piper is confused and just wants to bake but a storm during the dinner rush finds a dead body in his pie and a girl's body washing up on the beach. Langdon has ties to both bodies and the police want to talk to him but he goes missing. Could her old friend have killed his boss and the girl he was secretly meeting? When the police find the poison in Piper's possession she also becomes a suspect. Can one of the people who is meant to help stop the human trafficking be behind it? And if so can Piper and Sam live long enough to prove it wasn't Langdon?
I liked the narrator, you had no problems telling the characters apart. Even one was a little bit squeaky it made it fun.

More ooey gooey goodness
Pastries, Pies & Poison is #2 in the Ooey Gooey Bakery Mystery series by Katherine H. Brown. Piper and Sam cater a corporate event out of town. Unfortunately a man is found dead and the gal pals get busy investigating! The narration by Kati Schwaber is very good! She brings the story to life!
