Cassie Bishop returns to Salem's Pickering Wharf with a malfunctioning suitcase and a life that never quite fit. She's looking for the comfort of the family business, but she finds a developer's body cooling in a snowbank outside the Bishop Building instead. Amidst the comforting scents of butter, sugar, vanilla, and yeast, Cassie discovers that her lifelong clumsiness wasn't a flaw-it was Kitchen Witchery waiting for a channel.
With a mysterious brass key left in the slush and a shadowy group circling the wharf, Cassie must quickly master her magical intentions to protect a legacy that is far from ordinary. Guided by her sharp Aunt Clara and the warmly chaotic Aunt Ava, she navigates flour-dusted mishaps and a herb garden that grows in response to her moods. While Nutmeg the cat unearths inconvenient clues, Cassie works to untangle a web of burglary and a secret covenant dating back to the 19th century. In a town where the oven stays at 350 F, and the sheriff handles the supernatural with surprising calm, she must solve the murder before the secrets beneath the bakery's foundation are finally unleashed.
Enter the World of Pickering Wharf:
The Magic of Home: Discover a world where magic is kneaded into every loaf and a herb garden blooms to match a witch's heart.
A Deadly Cold Front: Solve a puzzling murder where the clues are frozen in the snow, and every neighbor has a secret they're protecting.
Charming Chaos: Meet the Bishop women-from the formidable Aunt Clara to the whimsical Aunt Ava-and the local sheriff who takes Salem's extraordinary nature in stride.
Ancient Secrets: Follow the trail of a centuries-old mystery hidden in the margins of old grimoires and buried beneath the bakery's very floorboards.
