Cookies can open doors, but for Sammy Baker, they might just unlock a murder mystery that’s hitting too close to home.
In the charming coastal town of Sunny Cove, baker and community champion Sammy Baker has her hands full collecting winter donations for the homeless shelter she helped establish. But when her friends Cliff and Judy—the shelter’s success story who finally secured their own apartment—are implicated in the murder of their neighbor, Sammy’s recipe for a quiet life crumbles.
The evidence seems damning: the victim was stabbed with a knife bearing Cliff’s initials. As neighbors turn against them and residents flee their building, Sammy knows time is running out. With her special blend of small-town connections and homemade cookies as currency, she begins untangling a web of jealousy, deception, and unexpected kindness.
Between managing her bustling café and navigating complicated relationships, Sammy uncovers secrets that someone in Sunny Cove would kill to protect. Will her determination to clear her friends’ names put her directly in the murderer’s path?
A deliciously cozy mystery filled with heart, community spirit, and a dash of danger—perfect for fans who like their mysteries served with a side of social conscience and small-town charm.
