"You'll be here by seven, won't you, sugar?"

This is the second book in the Piece of Cake Mystery series. Rita Lucero is running Zydeco Cakes after she inherited it from her husband. The bakery is in the midst of baking for Mardi Gras and Rita must also host a party for her late husband's krewe. A surprise visit from her aunt and uncle add to her stress. Uncle Nestor is the number one suspect when a wealthy patron is murdered at the party. Not one to sit idle, Rita throws herself into clearing her uncle's name.

I enjoyed this book more than the first one in the series. The characters have settled a bit and the whole book just felt more in tune. The situations were believable, the characters were presented well and the suspects were plentiful. A good solid read and I look forward to the next one in the series.
