Sun, sand, and a side of sabotage.
Belle Harbor's brand-new Bands & Bites Festival was supposed to be the event of the summer. Live music on the beach, incredible food, and the kind of small-town magic that keeps people coming back year after year.
Then the promoter showed up.
Slick, charming, and full of promises that sound just a little too good to be true, he's got half the town starstruck and the other half suspicious. Sponsorship deals are flying. Contracts are getting shoved across tables. And those VIP wristbands? They're starting to feel less like perks and more like warning labels.
Tilly doesn't have time for any of it. She's got a brownie tower that defies the laws of physics, a coffee line out the door, and a grandmother's legacy she'll protect with everything she's got.
But when the festival's backstage drama turns deadly, Tilly realizes the most dangerous thing at the party isn't the summer heat. It's the person running the show.
Now she'll have to sift real opportunities from poison deals, figure out who's playing the town and who's playing for keeps, and do it all before someone else gets burned.
Cozy beach vibes. Small-town secrets. One very shady festival boss. And a baker who refuses to let anyone mess with her people.
Perfect for fans of Joanne Fluke, Lynn Cahoon, and anyone who likes their mysteries served with a sea breeze and a killer dessert table.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
