Crumbs and Consequences: A Small Town Baker with Dog Cozy Mystery

About Crumbs and Consequences: A Small Town Baker with Dog Cozy Mystery

Murder is on the menu at the school bake sale... When baker Maggie Harper agrees to donate her famous crumble bars to the Maple Creek Elementary School Spring Fundraiser, she expects a day of cheerful community spirit and sweet treats. Instead, she watches in horror as PTA treasurer Meredith Collins collapses after taking one bite of Maggie's signature dessert.

The diagnosis? A fatal allergic reaction to almond extract—an ingredient Maggie knows she never used. With whispers spreading through town and customers avoiding The Sweet Pawtisserie, Maggie must clear her name and her bakery's reputation.

Aided by her loyal golden retriever Max and veterinarian Tom Walker, she begins investigating the seemingly perfect PTA board. As Maggie digs deeper, she uncovers a recipe of deception: financial discrepancies in the PTA accounts, secret meetings, and suspicious alibis. Someone in quaint Maple Creek wanted Meredith silenced permanently and used Maggie's baking as the murder weapon.

When threatening notes appear and Maggie's apartment is ransacked, it's clear she's getting too close to the truth.
