Did she fall or was she pushed?


A world away from small town Maple Falls where she grew up, Madeline Flynn is working in a bakery in Manhattan. Baking is her dream come true—but not everyone is happy for her.

When a body lands at her feet, Maddie is suddenly thrown into the investigation. The death is literally too close to home and things don't add up with the crime. With his uncanny sense of who is good and who isn't, even Big Red, her larger-than-life Maine coon, is seeing things in the shadows.

Will she be the next victim? And what does an angry contestant have to do with a kidnapping?
Do you love Murder, She Wrote? Then you'll enjoy Maddie's style because she's not taking no for an answer either.
The Maple Lane Mysteries are light, cozy mysteries featuring a quirky cat-loving bakery owner who discovers she's a talented amateur sleuth.
Each book contains an easy recipe!

5* "This story was a quick, easy read with a good pace, crime with a taciturn police detective trying to hold Maddie in check, and a baking competition that turns triumph to terror! Big Red, Maddie's Maine Coon cat companion, is a mighty protector prowling the streets of NYC and a key player. I love a cozy with a sassy pet."
