The picturesque village of Kilbane in County Cork, Ireland, is the perfect backdrop for a baking contestāuntil someone serves up a show-stopping murder that only Garda Siobhan OāSullivan can solve.
In Kilbane, opinions are plentiful and rarely in alignment. But thereās one thing everyone does agree onāthe bakery in the old flour mill, just outside town, is the best in County Cork, well worth the short drive and the long lines. No wonder theyāre about to be featured on a reality baking show.
All six contestants in the show are coming to Kilbane to participate, and the town is simmering with excitement. Aside from munching on free samples, the localsāincluding Siobhanāget a chance to appear in the opening shots. As for the competitors themselves, not all are as sweet as their

The producers decide to continue filming while Siobhan and her husband, Garda Macdara Flannery, sift through the suspects. Was this a case of rivalry turned lethal, or are their other motives hidden in the mix? And can they uncover the truth before another baker is eliminatedāpermanently ā¦
