Killer Chocolate Pie — Carolyn Q. Hunter

Bert Hannah is thrilled to open her brand new combination pie shop and bookstore, Pies and Pages, just in time for the holiday season in Culver's Hood, Nebraska. Kicking off the festivities is the annual Autumn Walk which is held in the downtown Old Market. Free samples of a tasty new pie and some awesome sidewalk sales on books are just what the doctor ordered to get new customers interested and buying.Circumstances quickly turn dark, however, when the body of a disgruntled customer turns up on Bert's doorstep. Detective Mannor is assigned to solve the case again, and Bert can't help sticking her nose firmly into police business, digging for clues and ferreting out information. Will she be able to assist the detective in catching the killer, or will the trigger-happy killer come for her next?
