Listeners visit the famed Shakespeare Festival in Ashland, Oregon, with chef Jules Capshaw, who owns a bakeshop named Torte. To start, artistic director Lance discovers the body of the troupe's lead actor, Antony. Narrator Emily Durante particularly shines with her flamboyant portrayal of Lance. She captures Lance's terror, his anxiety upon the disappearance of the body, and his despair when he is arrested for the murder. Back at Torte, the employees keep busily baking while trying to prove Lance's innocence. Warning: Depictions of delectable pastries may send listeners on sugar binges.
