Pie in the Sky
Life in Blue Sky, Pennsylvania, has just settled down into its normal routine when Alma Miller, the bishop's wife, is attacked in her home. Poor Alma is laid up in the hospital in a coma as they pray for her to heal. The only clue to her attacker, a cryptic message written in flour on the floor of her kitchen.
To add to the tragedy, rumors start flying around town that Frannie Lehman, the widow baker and long-standing rival of Alma Miller, is the one responsible for Alma's injuries.
The county festival is coming soon, bringing with it the annual pie baking contest, and the thought that the rumor just might be true. Every fall Alma's pie wins the blue ribbon while Frannie looks on in envy. It's been this way for the last ten years, the tension worsened by the fact that Frannie is a baker by trade and needs to bake the best pies in order to earn her living, while Alma bakes for the love of the endeavor.
To make matters worse, this year's competition has one change: All the contestants will be baking boysenberry pies, Alma's specialty. A new, top-notch judge has been brought in—an executive from Mrs. O'Malley's Pies. Could the winner have their recipe featured as a Mrs. O'Malley's treat?
But just when Alma appears to be recovering and it looks like she just might make the baking competition this year, she succumbs to her injuries. The charge of assault is changed to murder. Who could have killed the bishop's wife?
Kappy is on the case, doing her best to decipher the message in the flour, hopefully helping Jack Jones figure out who killed Alma and arrest the murderer. Then the only question that will remain is who will have the best boysenberry pie this year?
