Crumbling Deception

A novel by

 
 
In a town where secrets simmer, I must crack the code before my life crumbles with no hope of being salvaged. 

 

When my landlord, Marco, collapses after our heated argument, suspicion smothers my bakery like a thick fog in Hillgrove - everyone thinks my hand was in the cookie jar!

 

The interrogation with Detective Roberts and Williams is like a bad game of Good Cop Bad Cop. Their stares pierce through my facade, and I wonder which one I despise more—the male Detective Roberts, a relentless provocateur, or the cold, disinterested gaze of Detective Williams, indifferent to the truth I desperately try to reveal.

 

Until there's no other way to slice the cake, the killer is still after me. I embark on a culinary quest to clear my name, sifting through a mix of lies and betrayal with my trusty sidekick kitten, Loki, by my side.

 

As the pressure mounts, I realize the clock is ticking and my name isn't the only thing at risk of being engulfed in flames. I must unmask the killer before my bakery goes up in smoke and I pay the ultimate price.
