Lord of the Pies
Lord of the Pies: A Kensington Palace Chef Mystery | Nell Hampton
4 posts | 4 read | 1 to read
When Carrie Ann Cole bakes a lemon meringue pie to die for that actually kills someone, she must find out who the real killer is before her time at the Kensington Palace expires. The elegant Orangery at Kensington Palace is the perfect setting for the bridal shower of Carrie Ann Cole’s best friend’s sister. Personal chef to the royal family, Carrie Ann’s pie theme is naturally winning. But a waiter later keels over dead into the lemon meringue pie she leaves as a thank-you to the staff and Carrie Ann realizes that somebody slipped a mickey into that meringue. Her floury fingerprints are all over that pie and the authorities suspect her distress is a cover-up for murder. Carrie Ann must set out to clear her name if she wants to stay at her dream job any longer. But all too soon, another body drops in the Orangery. This time, it’s the Orangery chef. Murder won’t crimp her style, and as bodies pile up, Carrie Ann uncovers palace intrigue, London nightlife, and British pies scouring for the killer in Lord of the Pies, the witty follow-up to Nell Hampton’s Kale to the Queen.

Low tech reading tonight. 😆 Does anyone still use book weights? I‘ve had this one for forever. Comes in handy when I‘m trying to eat and read while the ceiling fan is on blowing things around.

wanderinglynn I use my phone as a book weight. 😂 4y
AkashaVampie I've never seen one before. I dont read physical books. Ebooks or audiobooks for me. 4y
Ladyval05 @wanderinglynn I use my phone in a pinch, but it becomes a distraction if it‘s close by. 4y
Scochrane26 I didn‘t know book weights existed. I use my phone or remote to weigh a page down, but the weights are prob a lot better. 4y
Ladyval05 @Scochrane26 I‘ve tried both of those and they don‘t work as well as the weight for me. They‘re either too slippery, not heavy enough, or in the case of the phone, too distracting. You can find book weights on Amazon if you ever decide to check into it. 4y

I really enjoyed this cozy mystery by Nell Hampton. Lord of the Pies is the second novel in the Kensington Palace Chef Mystery series.

The main character, Carrie Ann, is not only a kickass chef but also a kickass heroine. She fights her way up in the kitchen against numerous high profile chefs as well as fighting for her life against ruthless killers.

I received a free copy of this novel from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

As an American Chef in a Royal British household, Carrie Ann Cole faces bias every day, especially from the other chefs at the palace. Secrets, jealous lover‘s, and scandals all play a part in the mix of ingredients that make this cozy mystery one to indulge in. There‘s a plethora of juicy suspects and gossip to delight and entertain, plus a romance begins for Carrie. The author does a great job of concealing the murdering foe until the reveal.
