The beautiful grounds and the magnificent setting of Audley Castle is perfect for a prestigious wedding fair. The sun is shining, the wedding gowns are fluttering, and the cake samples are delicious. But behind the friendly greetings and free champagne, a murder is about to happen...
Hit me over the head with an overdone blueberry rock cake! I'm in shock when wedding florist, Connie Barber, dies while attending the Audley Castle annual wedding fair. Why would a healthy young woman drop down dead? Is there a killer lurking among the bridal bouquets?
It doesn't take long to learn there weren't many people who liked Connie. She was sharp, money-focused, and mean. And she enjoyed stealing other women's men.
When the autopsy reveals she was poisoned, I offer to help Campbell Milligan, the castle's grumpy head of security, figure out who killed Connie. But he's convinced he knows who did it. The only problem is, the prime suspect has Campbell as an alibi!
Determined to get justice for Connie, I keep investigating. But with a wedding dress catwalk to take part in, a mountain of baking to whip up, and the surprise arrival of a family member, I'm too busy to see past the blueberry muffins and mayhem to get to the truth.
Will this be the case that finally beats me?
