Ruby Starr breathes a sigh of relief that all is well in the whimsical town of Iris Cove, but while making a routine bakery delivery, she's shocked to discover a dead body inside the new bookshop. She assures everyone that she will never again be involved in sleuthing, but with clues all around, will her inquisitive mind be able to comply?
It's the holiday season, and cinnamon spice latte is on special at Bake Someone Happy Bakery. Ruby hopes to land a role in the annual Christmas play, and as she waits, she ponders whether to take over her aunt's bakery full-time or pursue her dream of acting on stage. After filling a chocolate truffle order, she's later shocked to discover the box of baked delights scattered around the crime scene in Paige Turner's bookshop.
Meanwhile, the Baker's Dozen book club is thrilled to host the author of their latest read, a murder mystery written by a former resident turned famous author, Penelope Peacock. However, the excitement fades as events from the sequel come to life, stirring Ruby's curiosity. Aunt Claire asks how she will attract a husband being involved in detective work. But secrets are waiting to be unveiled that answer questions about that fateful day. And when suspects appear in her path, will she be able to quell her natural detective abilities? Chief Starr remains adamant that she stay out of the investigation. After all, who knows if the murderer will strike again? So, when the deceased's blog reemerges, making negative comments about the bakery and her aunt, what's a girl to do?
