In the Teeth of It

2019

It’s been two months since the fiery events of Burned to a Crisp, and it’s Christmas in Enumclaw. Hedy is back to hosting visitors in her waystation, while Mel and Darro are decking the halls and telling tales of Krampus in between batches of cannibal Gingerbread Men cookies—just another Christmas at The Gingerbread Hag bakery. But the holiday spirit isn’t the only thing making its way through Enumclaw. Something definitely from the naughty list is attacking the local farms and the children are possessed with mischief. Hedy’s worries increase when the Concierge sends someone to investigate her house and possibly shut the waystation down for good. Who’s been naughty, and who’s been nice? Not every gift under the tree is one she’ll want to open, but Hedy better hurry, before all of Enumclaw gets caught In the Teeth of It.

Sweet Tooth and Claw

A Gingerbread Hag Mystery Book Three

2019

Snow blankets sleepy Enumclaw just before Valentine's Day and threatens to derail all of Hedy's efforts. Demonic cupid cookies and pierced heart cakes may go uneaten, but that's hardly the worst of it. Romantic woes of her own and long-lost friends from the past bring danger that could turn this Valentine's Day blood red for everyone she loves. Revenge is a dish best served cold, but will a fiery temper hellbent on retribution send everyone at the Gingerbread Hag bakery to its breaking point? Twists, turns, and betrayal make this a winter holiday that Hedy would like to forget. A Sweet Tooth and Claw might mean the end of her little supernatural waystation and so much more."An exciting instalment to the Gingerbread Hag series that encapsulates the best parts of cozy mystery and fantasy into one novel. A brilliant read that I recommend to everyone!" - Jamie Kramer, Books and Ladders
