It's a new year\, which means it's time fo r a new murder! We'll be starting off 2025 with Jessa Maxwell's The Golden Spoon (2023)\, a standalone mystery that's a little cozy and a little thr illing all at the same time.
\nEach summer\, six aspiring bakers des cend upon the grounds of Grafton\, the leafy and imposing Vermont Estate t hat is both the filming site for "Bake Week" and the childhood home of the show's famous host\, celebrated baker Betsy Martin. However\, the best-se lling cookbook author and so-called "America's Grandmother" is not as warm off-screen as she is on\, although no one needs to know that about her. S he has always demanded perfection\, and gotten it with a smile\, but this year something is off. Things go awry as soon as the baking competition be gins. At first\, it's merely sabotage - sugar replaced with salt\, a burne r turned too high - but when a body is discovered\, everyone is a suspect.
