Happy to be back in New Bison! #MurderisaPieceofCake #NetGalley


When I saw that the second book in Valerie Burns's series called A Baker Street Mystery was available on Net Galley, I quickly requested an ARC. Fortunately, my request was accepted and here we are!  I enjoy the setting of this book as I know it is based on the lovely, western Michigan town, of New Buffalo. 

We are back in town with Maddie who is almost ready to re-open Baby Cakes Bakery after the unfortunate events of the last book. April, Michael, Miss Hannah, and Leroy are back and once again trouble comes to their doorstep. I found this to be a good mystery, I wasn't sure who was doing the murdering and given the ending, the killer may very well still be out there. PLUS this book ends right before Maddy's Navy Admiral Dad is supposed to show up, so you've got me, Valerie Burns, I'm gonna pre-order the next book just as soon as I can!  
In between the murders, Maddy spends time with Michael at a winery that is very on-point for the area, there are lots of wineries! She also expands her small baking repertoire and I was really happy to see the recipe for her lemon meringue pie as well as her entry into the Spring Fling Festival.   

5 Stars, Thank you Net Galley for the ARC! All the opinions are mine!

I have read and enjoyed her books from two of her other series, but have not tried this one. I love that she always has dogs in her stories. Great review, Victoria.

This sounds wonderful from the mystery to the small-town setting.
