If there's one thing Sophie Garland is known for, it's her delectable holiday desserts. But clearing her name of murder? That's not on the menu.
Not even when Theo Kingsley, Ashbourne's infamously harsh food critic and local investigative journalist, drops dead after sampling her signature Christmas pudding. Poisoned, of course.
The timing couldn't be worse. With the Christmas Feast Extravaganza days away and The Holly & Hearth Bistro busier than ever, Sophie has to keep baking and serving, all while the town whispers about her being the number one suspect.
Her best friend Emily is convinced there's a killer on the loose, Detective Hale is watching her every move, and rival baker Nathan seems a little too eager to see her fail. But as Sophie starts to dig, she uncovers more than she bargained for: buried secrets, dangerous grudges, and a web of lies that wraps around Ashbourne like a ribbon on a Christmas gift.
Did someone really set her up? Or is there a darker, more sinister force at work?
It's up to Sophie to sift through the clues and solve the case before the killer strikes again-and before she ends up on the naughty list... for good.
