Scones, Secrets, and Sabotage

A Maple Grove Cozy Mystery A dead body. A missing scale. And a gluten-free scone recipe that's to die for. Jenna McGregor figured reopening her late Aunt Clara's café in sleepy Maple Grove would be the start of something sweet. She expected early mornings, artisanal espresso, and maybe the occasional snarky Yelp review. She didn't expect a side of sabotage with her cinnamon twists. With the town's legendary Harvest Festival in full swing, Jenna is already drowning in missing equipment and suspicious "pranks." But when the Festival Committee Chair is found dead behind a storage tent, the town's festive spirit curdles faster than spoiled milk. Armed with a best friend who reads tea leaves like a pro and a retired neighbor, Mildred, whose "paperwork" past has the town whispering about the CIA, Jenna dives into the chaos. Between a bloodied trophy, a mysterious ledger, and a warning note that's anything but sweet, she's about to learn that in Maple Grove, someone is brewing up a recipe for disaster. Can Jenna catch a killer before her second chance at a new life goes up in smoke? 4 friends. 1 old Jeep. And a whole lot of trouble.
