A Tassie Drake Small Town Cozy Mystery

Featuring Baxter the Dog (Pupcakes and Peril Book 3)

Pupcakes Bakery owner (and amateur sleuth) Tassie Drake must admit, things have been almost doggone perfect around Bluewater Bay. The warm summer weather has brought plenty of tourists to town (and to her bakery!), the Dog Days Festival is in full swing, and there hasn’t been a murder for almost three months!

Not to be selfish, but no murders mean more free time with her handsome boyfriend, detective Jack Sterling. Who would say no to that? Not Tassie, and not her Chiweenie, Baxter; he loves Jack as much as she––oops! (Love!? Was she ready for the “L” word?) Unfortunately, Tassie doesn’t have time to consider her romantic feelings. When one of her high school classmates is found strangled at the festival––with a dog leash, no less––half the town is a suspect. And that means it’s time to dust off her sleuthing shoes so she and Baxter can help Jack investigate.

But the deeper they dig, the more proverbial skeletons they uncover, and Tassie soon realizes Bluewater Bay may not be the quaint town she thought. More than one person she calls ”neighbor” is capable of murder…
