Allie Blanchard is a beloved figure in the seaside town of Sandy Harbor. Known for her delectable desserts that make every town event a little sweeter, Allie’s life is a blend of sugar, spice, and everything nice. Beneath the serene surface of her perfect pastries and her happy marriage to the town’s dedicated detective, Alec Blanchard, lies a sharp mind with a knack for uncovering secrets.

Allie is tasked with preparing a spread of her famous desserts for socialite Penny Braxton’s annual garden party, expecting a day of sweet treats surrounded by flowers and shrubs. However, the event takes a sinister turn when Penny is found murdered, turning the tranquil gathering into a scene of chaos and suspicion.

Driven by a sense of justice and her own insatiable curiosity, Allie teams up with her partner in crime—er, um—sleuthing, spirited best friend, Lucy Gray. Together, they delve into the lives of Sandy Harbor’s residents, discovering that beneath the veneer of small-town charm lie secrets, rivalries, and motives for murder.

As Allie and Lucy sift through clues and flimsy alibis, they must tread carefully. The killer is still at large, and the town’s serene facade hides deadly dangers. With her husband Alec working the official investigation, Allie finds herself in a race against time to unravel the mystery before the killer strikes again, proving that even the sweetest town can hide bitter secrets.
