Title: Kneaded to Death
Series: Bread Shop Mystery #1
Author: Winnie Archer
Goodreads Summary: Everyone swears by Yeast of Eden, the Mexican bread shop in town. But tonight, the only thing on the menu is la muerte . . .
Struggling photographer Ivy Culpepper has lots of soul-searching to do since returning to seaside Santa Linda, California. That is, until the thirty-one-year-old enters a bread making class at Yeast of Eden. Whether it’s the aroma of fresh conchas in the oven, or her instant connection with owner Olaya Dias and her sisters, Ivy just knows the missing ingredients in her life are hidden among the secrets of Olaya’s bakery . . .
But Ivy’s spirits crumble when a missing classmate is suddenly discovered dead in her car, riddled with stab wounds. Even more devastating, the prime suspects are the Dias sisters themselves. Doubting the women could commit such a crime, Ivy embarks on a murder investigation of her own to prove their innocence and seize the real killer. As she follows a deadly trail of crumbs around town, Ivy must trust her gut like never before—or someone else could be toast!

My Review: **I voluntarily reviewed this ARC**
This was a good start to the series. The mystery was great, but it seemed to focus more on the grieving process than the mystery.

My Manicure: Since there is a definite Mexican theme to this book, I broke out my Winstonia Viva la Fiesta plate. I started with a base of KBShimmer Spruce Things Up. Then I stamped a floofy skirt image with Winstonia Viva la Fiesta and Bundle Monster So Metal.
