Pies, Lies, and a Deadly Slice by Oscar Tate
A pie contest, a long suspect list, and enough small-town gossip to keep you warm on a cold night. Oscar Tate delivers a cozy mystery that's funny and satisfying.
Oscar Tate has written one of those cozy mysteries that feels like settling into your favorite chair — familiar, warm, and just a little dangerous. When the town's beloved pie competition becomes ground zero for something much more sinister, the only way to sort out the truth is to dig through layers of filling, gossip, and long-buried grudges.
Funny, clever, and satisfying right down to the last crumb.
“This one will make you laugh out loud twice in the first chapter. Oscar Tate is a talent to watch.”
