The Bitsie's Bakeshop Mysteries: Volume One: Three Cozy Culinary Mystery Novellas (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798460386093)

This omnibus edition contains the first three cozy culinary mystery novellas in the Bitsie's Bakeshop Mystery series.
Raspberry Ripple MurderBitsie George has always dreamed of owning her own bakery.

When she finds herself suddenly single after 27 years of marriage, Bitsie jumps at the chance of fulfilling her dream. The only drawback to her new life as a baker is the dead electrician in her kitchen.

Was the electrician the victim of a tragic on-the-job accident, or is there something much more sinister afoot? It's up to Bitsie to find out with a little help from her sister-in-law, her recently-retired-from-the-police-force brother, and her too-handsome-to-be-real shop assistant.

It's not easy finding a murderer when your most compelling clue is a half-eaten raspberry ripple cupcake, but perhaps a pleasantly-plump cupcake connoisseur is the perfect woman for the job.
Cherry Chocolate Murder

Just as recently-single Bitsie George is settling into her new life as a professional baker, things get complicated.

Bitsie's too-handsome-to-be-real shop assistant, Nick, gives his grandfather a dozen cherry chocolate cupcakes to share with his friends at Shady Grove retirement home.

When one of the cupcakes turns out to be laced with a potentially fatal dose of Grandpa Roscoe's heart medicine, and his romantic rival for the affections of Miss Lavinia Fay ends up in the hospital, Grandpa Roscoe becomes a prime suspect.

But was it really Roscoe who poisoned that cupcake, or is there someone else with murder on his mind?It's up to Bitsie to find the real culprit before Roscoe gets arrested, or, worse yet, the poisoner strikes again.
Strawberry Caramel MurderMonica, a food blogger who gave Bitsie's Bake Shop a glowing write-up in the local paper, inexplicably goes missing after picking up a box of cupcakes from the bakery.

Is Monica simply running away to escape a bad marriage, or is there a much more sinister reason for her sudden disappearance?

At the same time, there's the scissor-wielding creep who's attacking random women in parking lots, and two local hucksters bent on defrauding senior citizens with their bogus "investment" scheme? Are all these crimes related somehow? It's up to Bitsie to find out.
