Soft and sweet, and rotten to its core …
Joe Davidson didn’t anticipate coming back to Fairmont after his family broke apart. But when the news of Martha’s death reaches him, he finds his way home, just as the annual pie contest is getting judged — and when they need a new judge, he steps up and offers his services, even if he doesn’t know why.
But he gets a clue or two as he makes his way through the selections, and he relives the sweetest moments of his life … back when he had his own peach of the pie …
Life of Pies is a literary fiction mystery series inspired by A Gathering of Old Men and As I Lay Dying from award-winning, genre-hopping author C. S. Johnson.
