Sarah Stall traded her corporate corner office for four-thirty mornings and flour-dusted counters, and she's never looked back. Her cozy café, Bagels & Beans, has become the heart of small-town Clancy -- a place where regulars claim their favorite booths, gossip travels faster than the coffee pours, and her loyal mutt Bean greets every customer with a wagging tail. When a famous food critic walks through her door promising to put her everything bagels on the map, Sarah thinks her dreams are finally coming true. Then he collapses at her best table, and suddenly she's not famous for her baking -- she's infamous for murder.

With her reputation in ruins and her café's future hanging by a thread, Sarah refuses to sit back and let suspicion destroy everything she's built. Armed with nothing but her knowledge of the town's secrets and a best friend who's read far too many mystery novels, she starts asking questions the killer doesn't want answered. What she uncovers is a web of grudges, hidden money, and dangerous secrets that reaches far beyond a simple restaurant review. Someone in Clancy has been waiting for the perfect moment to strike, and Sarah is getting closer to the truth with every conversation.
