After setting up a small sewing studio in quaint Hideaway Grove, Abbey Chandler is focused on finding crafty, creative ideas to build up her clientele. But murder can be bad for business âŚ
Some of the independent shops in this sleepy town are barely hanging on financiallyâand that includes Sarahâs Sweets, Abbeyâs auntâs bakery. The shopâs advantageâaside from the deliciousness of its productsâis the fact that itâs the only bakery in the area. But it looks like thatâs about to change. The second wife of a wealthy businessman wants her own bakeryâand money is no object.
When murder unravels the plans for the competing shop, Aunt Sarah is an immediate suspectâand Hideaway Groveâs merchants are on pins and needles about a big upcoming womenâs conference, fearing the organization will cancel their booking because of the crime. Abbeyâs doing her best to stay optimistic and stitch some custom tote bags for the attendees, but sheâs also concerned with patching up Aunt Sarahâs good reputation. And when it comes to sorting through the possible motives of the victimâs family members and associates, sheâs got a few tricks up her sleeve âŚ
