The Peanut Butter Twist: A Bookstore Cozy Mystery

About The Peanut Butter Twist: A Bookstore Cozy Mystery

In Maple Ridge, murder is served with a peanut butter twist. Tess Holloway moved to Maple Ridge for quiet mornings, strong coffee, and the joy of running her own bookshop on Main Street. But her peace is shattered when Henry Dawson, the town’s beloved baker, is found dead—and it’s his loyal chocolate lab, Cocoa, who leaves a trail of bloody pawprints straight to Tess’s door.

Suddenly Tess is swept into a mystery that has the whole town buzzing. Why would anyone want Henry dead? What secret did he discover that got him killed?

And why does the evidence seem to twist into knots instead of answers? With Cocoa at her side and her new friends rallying behind her, Tess finds herself digging into small-town grudges, rivalries, and half-baked alibis. But the closer she gets to the truth, the more dangerous the game becomes.
