A novel by Kathleen Suzette
Fall has arrived in Sandy Harbor, Maine, and the crisp air carries the scent of cinnamon, nutmeg, and maple syrup. Allie is busy baking maple pies from her grandmama's treasured recipe for the town's Harvest Festival, and business at her bakery booth has never been better.

Can Allie catch the killer before another life is cut short, or will this autumn investigation become her most dangerous one yet?
