When cozy mystery author Merry Baker arrives in the postcard-perfect town of Sweetvale to research the famous Swiss rolls at Bonbon Bliss Bakery, she expects nothing more than delectable pastries and small-town charm.

But her visit takes a dark turn when the bakery’s brilliant—yet hot-tempered—pastry chef is found dead under suspicious circumstances.

With rumors swirling and suspicion landing squarely on the bakery’s owner, Merry can’t resist poking around for clues. Soon, she’s knee-deep in secret recipes, hidden rivalries, and plenty of local gossip.

In a place where everyone seems to have a motive, Merry will need her keen writer’s eye to unroll the truth—before Sweetvale’s sugary façade crumbles.
