Summary
With summer approaching, Estes Park is abuzz with flowers, baking, tourists, and...murder.
Tourist season is about to begin, and the lovely weather has Winifred Page and her corgi sidekick, Watson, leaving the comfort of the Cozy Corgi Bookshop and Bakery to reluctantly attend a celebration at the Black Bear Roaster coffee shop. But a chill of uncertainty settles over Fred when a choking death doesn't seem so accidental - despite the dry, hazardous scones.
As Fred and Police Sergeant Branson Wexler rekindle a possible romance, Fred shares her suspicions. But is she seeing murder at every turn? Learning to trust her gut feelings, Fred risks the ire of the coffee shop owner to investigate not one but two deaths.
As suspects and motives abound, old resentments are uncovered, and Fred and Watson build new friendships even as they follow the crumbs to find clues to a killer.

A sweet treat in more ways than one
I enjoyed this book. This is book five in the series and things are coming together nicely for this fun cozy mystery series. I love the characters and there tight-knit family bond but as so often in cozy mysteries it is the four legged characters that steal the show and have the listener arhhing. Fred did get slightly annoying with her indecisiveness over the love of her life of her feeling but as the story mostly focused on the mystery it was just a slight annoyance. Every time I listen to one of these books I wish I had a Cozy Corgi bookshop near me. The mystery was interesting and complex with it many suspects, motives and suspicions. Not complex that it was confusing, it just kept you on your toes and hooked. I had guessed who the killer was but it was fun listening to Fred work it out. Looking forward to the next book.
With the Black Bear Roaster showcasing a new blend in honour of the owners new baby, Winifred
(Fred) and Katie find themselves reluctantly going to the coffee shop to show support. Instead when the owners father-in-law dies after eating a scone, Fred has a feeling it was no choking accident. Or is her problems with the coffee shop owner making her see murder when there isn't one? Her reputation precedes her and everybody in town knows she is looking into it but just as she begins to think she is wrong another customer dies. The high school mid is the common thread for both murders, well other than Fred and the police take him in. His twin brother turns to Fred for help in clearing his name. Can Fred connect the two cases and find the killer?
I like the narrator. She helps the story flow along nicely and makes it entertaining
