The golden spoon

£8.99

For six amateur bakers, competing in Bake Week is a dream come true. When they arrive at Grafton Manor to compete, they’re ready to do whatever it takes to win the ultimate prize: the Golden Spoon. But for the show’s famous host, Betsy Martin, Bake Week is more than just a competition. Grafton Manor is her family’s home and legacy – and Bake Week is her life’s work. It’s imperative that both continue to succeed. But as the competition commences, things begin to go awry. At first, it’s small acts of sabotage. Someone switching sugar for salt. A hob turned far too high. But when a body is discovered, it’s clear that for someone in the competition, the Golden Spoon is a prize worth killing for.

As she welcomes contestants to her ancestral home, Grafton Manor, she’s excited to discover who will have

Quickly, though, things start to go wrong…

The contestants are jittery – they’ve heard strange noises in the manor at night.

Betsy is irate – a new co-host has arrived, and he’s out for her spotlight.

Then, the sabotage begins. At first, it’s small. Sugar switched for salt. A hob turned too high.

Because for someone at Bake Week it’s time to settle old scores . . .
