In the seaside town of Turtle Cove, the annual Sourdough Bake-off is the hottest ticket in town --- and baker Vera Whitcombe is ready to prove her starter is the best since sliced bread.

Representing the Willowrose Inn (with moral support from Rocky, the inn's biscuit-loving beagle), Vera joins a cast of quirky townsfolk eager for bragging rights and a glowing review.

Enter Mortimer Alcott, famed food journalist for Dining Extraordinaire --- an eccentric, self-important judge with a refined palate and no shortage of opinions.

As trays of golden loaves emerge from the ovens, Mortimer samples every entry in site.....until a bite of Vera's sourdough leaves him coughing---and collapsing---dead in front of a stunned crowd.

With suspicion rising faster than yeast, Vera finds herself in danger of being the prime suspect.

Determined to clear her name, she teams up with Rocky to sniff out the truth. But in a town full of secrets, sour attitudes, and half-baked alibis, finding the real killer won't be easy.

Full of small-town charm, canine capers, and a murder that's anything but half-baked.

The Sourdough Murders is a cozy mystery that proves some competitions can be deadly!
