About this ebook
Will the opening of a hot bread shop nearby spell the end for Corinna Chapman's Earthly Delights Bakery? Our amateur sleuth and baker extraordinaire returns in another criminally entertaining and delicious adventure from the author of the bestselling Phryne Fisher series.
Corinna Chapman, amateur sleuth, baker extraordinaire and proprietor of the Earthly Delights Bakery, returns for her fourth criminally entertaining and delicious adventure.
When a cut-price franchise bakery opens its doors just down the street from Earthly Delights and crowds flock to purchase the bread, Corinna Chapman is understandably nervous. Meanwhile, the gorgeous Daniel's old friend Georgiana Hope has temporarily set up residence in his house, and it doesn't take Corinna long to work out that she's tall, blonde, gorgeous and up to something. Daniel is making excuses and Corinna is worried about his absences and also the strange outbreak of madness which seems to be centred on Lonsdale Street.
Will Corinna win through a maze of health regulations, missing boyfriends, sinister strangers, fraudulent companies and back-alley ambushes? Or will this be the end for the Earthly Delights Bakery?

This is the fourth book in Kerry Greenwood's Corinna Chapman series and like the rest, it doesn't disappoint. In fact its an excellent read and once finished, I felt compelled to start back at the very beginning and relive the story all over again. In this book, we see the witches gathering in Melbourne to celebrate Halloween causing problems for Meroe, a mystery of missing Greek treasure stolen by the Nazis in WW2, a rival franchise bakery opening nearby, poisoned cakes which send the consumers insane and ultimately lead to the temporary closure of Earthly Delights, and the appearance of George (aka Georgina) Daniel's former boss from London and rival for his affections. For a while there life is not looking good for Corinna but with the love and support of her fellow apartment dwellers in Insula, all is ultimately resolved, for better or for worse, in the end. As always there are some great recipes shared at the end of the book and I can highly recommend the Wonder Cake.
