Eclairs and Extortion E-BOOK

Marriage, Menace… and Murder!

The same day Maddie's mother unexpectedly arrives in Maple Falls, a body is found in the park. Coincidence? Maddie isn't so sure. And to make things even more unsettling, a mysterious stranger has been spotted roaming the streets.

With Gran's surprise 70th birthday party to plan, Maddie doesn't have time for family drama—or murder. But when tensions rise between three generations of women, keeping the peace becomes just as challenging as solving the case.

Between family secrets, a suspicious outsider, and a killer on the loose, Maddie has her hands full. Can she uncover the truth before the celebration turns into a crime scene?

The Maple Lane Mysteries serve up small-town sleuthing, a cat-loving baker with a nose for trouble, and plenty of twists, turns, and tasty treats!

📚 Perfect for fans of culinary cozy mysteries, amateur sleuths, and suspense with a sprinkle of humor!
