About the book

Full-time baker and occasional detective Sally Muccio is relishing her new role as a wife and hoping for a boost in bakery sales. When popular TV host Donna Dooley invites her and her best friend, Josie, to appear on Someone's in the Kitchen with Donna, it seems like a dream come true. However, their excitement quickly fades when they realize that Josie's old rival from culinary school, Kelly Thompson, is Donna's new assistant.

As tensions rise like a batch of cookies in the oven, the animosity between Josie and Kelly boils over into a messy food fight during the show, which then goes viral. Things take a dark turn when a dead body is found on set, with suspicion falling on Josie. Sal must now come to her friend's defense, navigate a threat to her marriage from the past, and handle her eccentric parents as they star in a commercial for a funeral home.

Amidst the chaos, Sal uncovers a potential connection between the current murder and a cold case from the past. With a killer hot on her heels and determined to silence her forever, Sal must act quickly to solve the mystery and save herself and her loved ones.
