The Final Crumble
(2025)(The sixth book in the Eliza Crumbles Mystery series)
A Story by Maisy Marple
In Maple Hollow, the annual Butter Festival is supposed to be about creamy confections and small-town charm—not murder.
When festival organizer Marty Davenport is found frozen to death inside a refrigerated dairy truck, the quaint celebration curdles into a crime scene. Local baker Eliza Crumbles can't help but notice suspicious behavior churning beneath the festival's surface.
Was it Ellen Knox, whose dairy farm mysteriously received preferential treatment year after year? Owen Talbot, the struggling small dairy farmer with a twenty-year grudge? Or perhaps Sam Reese, the town council member investigating financial irregularities in the festival books?
With the help of her faithful tuxedo cat Whiskers, her supportive friend Gabe, and despite the warnings of handsome Deputy Jason Carter, Eliza kneads through a dough of deception, embezzlement, and small-town rivalries. As she uncovers a recipe of corruption that's been rising for years, Eliza realizes that in Maple Hollow, some secrets are worth killing for.
Can she identify the killer before they decide Eliza knows too much? Or will her sleuthing career come to a chilling end?
Genre: Cozy Mystery
