Deadly Delivery

Small-town cozy mystery with a wrongly accused sleuth.

Sugar Creek Gap looks like the kind of small town where everyone shows up with casseroles during hard times and celebrates together during the good ones. But it's also the kind of place where gossip spreads faster than facts—and once suspicion takes hold, it's hard to shake.

Bernadette knows this all too well. After a heated argument with a cantankerous man on her delivery route, Bernadette tries to make peace the only way she knows how—by bringing him a batch of homemade biscuits. When he later turns up dead, that simple gesture makes her the prime suspect in his murder.

Determined to clear her name and get back to the life she loves, Bernadette teams up with her best friend Iris and her outspoken neighbor Revonda Gail. As the trio digs into small-town grudges, long-simmering resentments, and secrets no one meant to share, they discover that Sugar Creek Gap has more than one motive hiding behind friendly smiles.

With the clock ticking and suspicion closing in, Bernadette must uncover the truth before gossip turns deadly—and before she loses everything she's worked so hard to protect.

A warm, small-town cozy mystery filled with friendship, community, and a dash of danger, perfect for readers who love amateur sleuths, Southern charm, and mysteries where family comes first.
