The finalists include Fannie, plus Michael and Melissa Taylor, a couple on the brink of divorce and really in need of the $25,000 prize money. The last finalist is the Blustery Beiler sisters, Faith, Hope and Charity who actually own a bake shop and are especially known for their cinnamon rolls. The sisters are also known for their gossiping. Other contestants seem to be missing one by one and all three finalists are suspects as well as others in the community.

This is a sweet Amish cozy mystery you will not want to put down until you have read it all to see how the mystery is solved.

She has entered in the past, but this time thinks the aunt who gave her the recipe for biscuits just might be the thing that will give her the win. Suddenly, several of the contestants are missing.
