The Culinary School Conspiracy
(2025)(The first book in the Prissy Carter Cozy Mystery series)
A novel by Kay Bishop
🎓 Prestige. Secrets. Sabotage.
Prissy Carter dreamed of perfecting her craft at the world-renowned Auguste Academy of Culinary Arts. But when she arrives, the recipes aren’t the only things simmering. Whispers of vanished students, cryptic notes hinting at a ‘next course,’ and punishments that feel more like chains than lessons threaten to turn her dream into a nightmare.
When a suspicious ‘kitchen accident’ nearly turns deadly, Prissy’s Chef’s Sixth Sense—a gift for tasting lies as easily as flavors—warns her that something sinister is at work. With her ragtag allies—a science-nerd sous chef, a street-smart cook, and a cryptic janitor with secrets of his own—Prissy digs deeper into the Academy’s gilded halls.
But every clue uncovered tightens the noose. And someone is determined to silence her before she can expose the truth.
🥖 Culinary School Conspiracy is the first in A Prissy Carter Mystery—a binge-worthy cozy mystery series where bread is choice, fire is chains, and one heroine refuses to crumble.
Fans of Rosie A. Point, J.A. Whiting, and Ellie Alexander will savor every twist.
