It’s 24 hours before Alfie’s birthday party. 24 hours before someone’s going to die. What happens next has everything to do with what happened before. Charlotte has made the cake. Dani has made a mistake – an unforgivable, best-friend-destroying, boyfriend-involving mistake. Darkly funny and deliciously unhinged, this reverse murder mystery slices through jealousy, friendship and the fragile line between telling the truth and protecting the people you love. Because sometimes honesty is an act of violence – and sometimes love is the crime. CAKE asks, who gets to have their cake and eat it too?
