Half Baked Murder

By Carol Durand and Summer Prescott

RECIPE INCLUDED
Success has never been so dangerous.
After returning home to LaChance, Louisiana, from a high-profile cupcake competition in Las Vegas, cupcake shop owner Melissa "Missy" Gladstone is enjoying a level of success she never imagined possible. Thanks to the publicity surrounding the event, customers are lining up outside her bakery, and for the first time, expanding her business seems within reach.

But not everyone is happy about Missy's newfound fame.

When a series of strange incidents begins disrupting her life, Missy tries to brush them off as bad luck. Yet the unsettling events keep piling up, and they feel far too deliberate to be mere coincidence. Then a local resident is found murdered, and Missy realizes that something far more sinister may be happening in her quiet Southern town.

As fear spreads through the community, Missy can't shake the feeling that the killer's plans aren't finished. With the help of her friends and her sharp eye for clues, the determined baker once again steps into the role of amateur sleuth to uncover the truth.

The deeper she digs, the more secrets she uncovers-and the more dangerous the investigation becomes. If Missy can't identify the murderer in time, she may discover that she was the intended target all along.

Can Missy solve the mystery before another victim falls? Or will her latest investigation be her last?

Perfect for fans of cozy mysteries, culinary cozy mysteries, bakery mysteries, cupcake shop mysteries, amateur sleuths, Southern cozy mysteries, small-town murder mysteries, clean whodunits, and charming female sleuth adventures filled with friendship, suspense, and delicious desserts.
