The Academy still smells of smoke. Its kitchens hum again—but with secrets.
Prissy Carter returns to halls scarred by fire, armed only with her uncanny palate and a crumb of ritual—flour, water, salt. When recipes turn lethal and rivals rise crowned in flame, Prissy is thrust into a dangerous game of sabotage and shine, where every crust hides a clue and every loaf may betray her.
With a found family of loyal misfits—a sharp-tongued street cook, a cerebral note-taker, a mysterious archivist, and a janitor with more wisdom than polish—Prissy must face the forbidden oven beneath the Academy. But her greatest rival, Celeste, craves Rousseau’s legacy, and will stop at nothing to claim the crown of ash for herself.
To save her friends and the Academy’s soul, Prissy must prove that true power isn’t in alchemy’s false glitter… but in honest bread.
Deliciously cozy. Dangerously sharp.
Genre: Mystery
