Loaves of Deception

A Deadly Delicacies Mystery Book 2

By: Kay Bishop

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

In the quiet town of Cloverford, bread is more than food—it’s tradition, pride, and the heart of the community. But when a celebrated bakery’s prized loaves are tied to sabotage and scandal, the town’s golden crust of trust begins to crumble.

Em Cartwright, a fiery redhead with a knack for uncovering secrets, arrives at the annual Bread Festival expecting friendly rivalries and buttery bragging rights. Instead, she finds whispers of betrayal, a handprint scrawled in flour like a ghostly warning, and a basket hiding more than sourdough.

When the bread ovens cool and a body turns up, Em realizes this mystery isn’t half-baked—it’s deadly. As shadows stretch across cobblestones and suspicion rises like yeast, she must sift through lies, secrets, and long-buried grudges before the killer serves up another victim.

Loaves of Deception is a deliciously dark cozy mystery with twists as sharp as a bread knife and clues as slippery as butter on a hot roll. This second entry in The Deadly Delicacies Mysteries will leave readers hungry for more.
