A pizza-making contest turns into a race to catch a killer when a frozen dough mogul is murdered in this Southern cozy mystery novel.

Eleanor Swift and her sister Maddy, proprietors of the best little pizzeria in Timber Ridge, North Carolina, are not at all amused when the frozen pizza baron Laughing Luigi walks into their establishment. Past experience with the sketchy businessman left a decidedly bad taste in their mouths. But now Luigi is planning a pizza-making contest right in Timber Ridge. And with a first prize of $25,000, the offer to take part is downright irresistible.

It doesn't take them long to realize that Laughing Luigi's contest is seriously rigged. But someone else gets the last laugh when Luigi is murdered with a poisoned slice pizza. Did other contestants need the dough so badly enough they'd kill for it? Eleanor and Maddy are out to solve the case before the killer comes back for more.

Includes delicious pizza recipe!

      The tasty fifth serving of Cavender’s pizza lovers series (after 2012’s Rest in Pizza) finds Timber Ridge, N.C., pizzeria owner Eleanor Swift and her sister, Maddy Spencer, competing for the $25,000 prize in a pizza baking contest sponsored by Laughing Luigi, purveyor of frozen pizza dough. Eleanor and Maddy know from past experience they can’t trust Luigi, but that grand prize would be just what they need for improvements to their pizzeria, A Slice of Delight. Dream on. Not only does the contest appear to be rigged, but before it’s over, Luigi is no longer laughing—he’s dead with a slice of the sisters’ pizza in his mouth. The murder victim was thoroughly despised by the contestants as well as his employees, but which one committed the crime? Eleanor and Maddy once again join forces with police chief Kevin Hurley to find out. This is another fun pizza romp, but it could use a little more meat.
