But the evening ends on a sour note when Professor Starke is found murdered mere moments after being accused of plagiarism. Just like that, Pie Town is at the center of another criminal inquiry. At Abril's request, Val and Charlene decide to investigate Starke's death.

Publisher's Summary
Will Val pie hard on national TV?
Business at the bakery may have slowed down, but Val Harris isn't about to eat humble pie - not until a reality cooking show decides to whip the struggling Pie Town into shape. If Val can tolerate criticism from an abrasive pastry chef during filming, the free publicity might turn the unusual opportunity into the sweetest deal she didn't know she needed.
Except no one in San Nicholas has an appetite for dessert once murder steals the spotlight. When the show's bossy producer gets pushed to her death, Val and her flaky, septuagenarian pie crust expert, Charlene, follow crumbs in hopes of finding the killer. But with cameras still rolling and the shocking identity of the victim's replacement a guaranteed recipe for disaster, Val needs to stay cool long enough to solve the crime and keep Pie Town from falling apart - or else she just might go up in smoke before she ever graces the small screen.

Meh
This is my last book in this series. Charlene’s behavior is too over-the-top inconsiderate. I find it difficult to believe that someone would consider any a friend that manipulates them and puts them in awful situations all the time. A drum circle and 15 other women using your tiny house bathroom, after having to do all this stuff to be able to rent said tiny house at an affordable price? Yeah right. Charlene is annoying and Val comes across as an annoyed doormat. Done.
