Debbie and Noel Carpenter are back from their not-so-restful but definitely unique honeymoon. Other than the fact that they are nervous about becoming grandparents, life has become almost normal. Debbie's pastry shop is thriving (although not as well as it COULD be) and the Fernandina Beach community has welcomed Noel with open arms.

What they did not expect was FBI Special Agent Nate White to show up and ask if he can use Debbie's shop as a stake out place to help catch some kidnappers. Debbie is always up for a good mystery but this could be life or death for the kidnapped child, and for Debbie. The mystery is brewing and Noel's son drops in quite unannounced!! Could he be a part of the kidnapping or does he really want to get to know his dad's new family??

Add in few ultra-colorful characters and Noel's son by his first marriage and you have a who-dun-it that keeps you on your toes. A wonderful addition to a suspenseful series! Ms. Norman outdid herself this time! And as a Floridian born and raised in Jacksonville it was refreshing to see it so well portrayed!
