A poisoned cupcake. A seaside town full of secrets. And a dog with a nose for trouble.

Jasmine Nazari, a burned-out marketing exec, stops in Pelican Cove hoping for rest before launching her inherited catering business. But when a loathed land developer drops dead after sampling her aunt’s cupcakes at the town bake sale, suspicion falls squarely on Mira—and her beloved bakery.

To clear her aunt’s name, Jasmine dives into the investigation armed with sharp instincts, marketing savvy, and Mango—a scruffy mutt with a knack for finding clues. She reluctantly teams up with Detective Ben Holden, a charmingly naive cop just starting to take her seriously.

Between rival bakers, gossipy café owners, and threatening notes, Jasmine uncovers decades-old betrayals and a family secret worth killing for. Suspects include Dottie Lane, a hotheaded baker bitter over lease disputes, and Mrs. Donnelly, a sharp-tongued former landowner coerced into selling.

With Mira’s bakery on the brink and danger closing in, Jasmine must unmask the killer—before she’s next.
