By Fiona Dunmore · Briar Harbor Mystery #1
Includes Maisie's authentic scratch recipe for Dutch Apple Cardamom Pie with Browned Butter Glaze printed on the back flyleaf.
Flour on the apron. A puzzle on Harbor Street.
Maisie Finch didn't move from Boston to the rocky shores of Briar Harbor to become a detective. She moved to escape ninety-hour line cook shifts and inherit her late grandfather’s cedar cottage on Harbor Street. With her cynical tuxedo cat Barnaby asleep on the flour bins, The Salty Whisk was supposed to be a haven of cardamom buns, wild blueberry tarts, and peaceful sea mist.
Then Julian Vance, the ruthless developer threatening to bulldozing the working harbor for luxury condos, collapses over his morning slice of Dutch Apple Cardamom Pie. When Maisie's friend is wrongly suspected, Maisie and Barnaby must untangle harbor rumors, family secrets, and coastal feuds to clear her name.
A delightful, heartwarming coastal whodunit filled with small-town Maine charm, laugh-out-loud banter, and delicious baking.
