About A Crumble of Chaos: A Cafe Crimes Cozy Mystery Book 11
A Crumble of Chaos is the eleventh book in the Cafe Crimes series—a clean culinary cozy mystery featuring amateur sleuth and former true-crime podcaster Parker Hayes in the charming small town of Magnolia Grove. Every August, the town’s biggest motorcycle rally brings chrome, leather jackets and a whole lot of noise. Between managing Hazel’s conspiracies, Whit’s podcast production and serving Peachy Keen Lattes, Parker Hayes already has her hands full. But when a beloved biker nearly dies in a suspicious crash, Parker’s plans for low-stress crumble fast. Everyone says it was a freak accident. Parker’s gut says otherwise. As the peach crumble cools and the engines roar, Parker, her loyal dog Major, Whit, and friends dig into the truth behind the “accident.” The deeper she goes, the more she realizes Magnolia Grove’s latest chaos isn’t about rival bikers or rowdy tourists—it’s about family, fear and a secret someone would do anything to keep buried. A Crumble of Chaos is a cozy mystery filled with secrets, twisty red herrings and the reminder that sometimes, the toughest battles aren’t fought on the open road—but in the quiet moments when you decide to fight for the people you love.
