Photographer Ivy Culpepper is soon to make a home with her husband-to-be in the California beach town of Santa Sofiaโbut the Yeast of Eden bakery remains her second home. Itโs not just a place to work, but a communityโand now one member of the community has been murdered. A regular who used Yeast of Eden as a workspace, Josh Prentiss always turned heads with his startlingly good looks and thousand-watt smile. But Ivy canโt help noticing one morning that he seems distracted and off his game. Later, during a visit to the park where she and Miguel plan to hold their engagement partyโwith plenty of baked goods on the menuโher rescue pug, Agatha, sniffs out Josh lying in a bed of poppies...scone cold dead. Thereโs no reason for Ivy to get involved. Sheโs busy enough holding down the fort while the shopโs owner, Olaya, cares for her recently orphaned nieceโnot to mention the stress when a new employee is fired and storms out in a rage. Then a band of rabble-rousers starts picketing the bakery, claiming that Olayaโs sourdough roll is what killed Josh, and Ivy hears some salacious gossip about her beloved boss. She doesnโt think thereโs a grain of truth to the seedy rumorsโbut to prove it, sheโll have to start sleuthing...
