Murder Takes the Cake

The food and baking elements add such a cozy charm. I wonder if the author has a personal background in baking or chose it to enhance the atmosphere.

The story took some time to pick up again, but I loved the small-town details. Was that intentional to build character or a pacing choice?

The cast feels like a warm community, but I’m curious how much of their personalities were inspired by real people or purely fictional.
