A Sourdough Scandal (Murder in the Mix--ing Bowls)
By Patsy Hicks
Oak Haven is cheering for Lou Ellsworth after her sourdough loaf wins a major online contest. Interest arrives from all directions, and one investor moves quickly to secure a deal. Soon after a meeting at Lou’s house, he is found dead in her kitchen, and whispers begin to stir.
Lou keeps the focus on home and the safety of her foster kids while she looks for calm, practical answers. As she digs into the details, parts of the proposal don’t feel right, and the timelines don’t quite match her expectations. Bennett’s priority is keeping her safe, and Lorna’s is keeping her steady.
With Bruiser and Brown following the tiniest crumbs, Lou pieces together what the investor was truly after and why someone believed his death would hide it. To clear her name and quiet the town, she lets the facts speak for themselves and follows the truth wherever it leads.
Comforting, clever, and Southern at heart, this cozy murder mystery celebrates family, friendship, and good bread.
