Bake Off Wars is back! Get your aprons on and let the sleuthing begin!
BREAKING NEWS Vera Bolt, Queen of Bakes, dies unexpectedly aged 66
In a shocking announcement this afternoon, Vera Bolt’s agent confirmed that the Bake Off Wars judge and national treasure died yesterday. Ms Bolt was in the process of filming the next series of the hugely popular television show at Francis Court, the home of the King’s sister and her family. It’s believed that the renowned pastry chef was stabbed in the heart, and the main suspect is rumoured new royal girlfriend, Summer York.
What am I supposed to do? Lady Beatrice has promised DCI Richard Fitzwilliam that she won’t get involved in the investigation into Vera Bolt’s death. But when her brother’s new love interest, Summer York, becomes the top suspect for Vera’s murder, Fred begs Bea to find out who the real killer is. In a race against time, can Bea navigate a labyrinth of secrets and lies, evade danger, and safeguard her friendship with Fitzwilliam?
The answer may determine not only Summer’s innocence but also the fate of Bea’s and Fitzwilliam’s burgeoning feelings for each other.
Firstly thank you to Rachels Random Resources, Drew Bradley Press and Helen Golden for having me on this tour and sending me a copy of the book.
I knew I was going to love this book because I absolutely adored the last book in the series A Cocktail to Die For, so much so that the rest of the series is currently waiting to be read on my kindle! Helen Golden's writing style is brilliant and I immediately got drawn straight into Lady Bea's world and was swept away with her and Perry's discussion's, I really enjoy their friendship its one that just makes you smile as you read it. They both just come across as people you wish you actually knew because they'd be the best for having a brilliant time, no matter what the plans were they'd make them better kind of people and I think Helen Golden is just brilliant at writing characters that are so easy to connect to.
I saw the Simon twist way before it was revealed, I kind of guessed it at the first mention of someone looking for him but I didn't mind that. I liked it when it was finally revealed and I didn't guess the other twist in the book half as quickly (I think I got there at the same time as Bea) so I genuinely didn't mind that I saw Simons. The undercurrent of Rich and Bea was frustrating to read, the whole time I was yelling at them to get together, abit like Perry I was willing them to give it a go because they would clearly make each other happy.
I'm so hooked on this series now that I finished this one and went straight to find out when the next one was out, frustratingly I have to wait til December for book 10, but I know it'll be worth the wait.
