Now she lives with her teenage son in her quaint hometown of Jordan Hollow and runs the Sweet Retreat bakery, but when one of her friends and regular suppliers, Nick Bronson, is accused of murder, Tessa finds that her editing skills are very useful for sleuthing.
Someone seems to have framed Nick for murder and it is up to Tessa to find out who and why. With her trained editor’s eye for details and instinct for spotting lies and inconsistencies, and a little help from her friends, Tessa digs deep and soon finds that something sinister is going on under the peaceful, small town surface of Jordan Hollow.
A cute, cozy mystery novella set in a small Canadian town featuring a sympathetic female amateur sleuth who has a friendly rivalry with the local detective, a tight-knit community and a deepfelt love and respect for family businesses, traditions and passing down knowledge from generation to generation.
