Nice cozy mystery about a pie maker who can infuse pies with magic. She can add positive things like strength or concentration, or, occasionally under the right circumstances, murder. This was different than a lot of the cozy mysteries I've read and I found it to be an enjoyable page turner. There are recipes in the back for the pies in the book. I received a complimentary copy from the publisher through Netgalley.

CW: There is quite a bit of political messaging in this book which may be off-putting to some, especially if your political views lean to the right.
