The Bakehouse Three unite to find and rescue a favorite customer and her dog before time runs out. Although tourists are their summertime bread and butter, Bread on Arrival bakehouse owners Carol MacCallan, Laura Donovan, and Molly Ferris also welcome plenty of local regulars. Outdoors enthusiast Jeanette Franklin is one such customer, so it’s especially unnerving when she and her adorable springer spaniel, Scout, go missing. Although it would be bad enough for Jeanette to have injured herself, evidence arises that her ties to a major business deal being brokered by her estranged husband could have made her a target for violence. Sensing the situation’s dire urgency, the Bakehouse Three map out a course of action that will hopefully bring Jeanette home safe, organizing a search party to comb nearby hiking trails, conservation areas, and other remote locations. But if they don’t find Jeanette off the beaten path, can they unearth clues to her true whereabouts before time runs out? Or is tracking down Jeanette Franklin simply a lost cause? This clever whodunit from Annie’s Scottish Bakehouse Mysteries series is a must-read for fans of cozy mysteries, baking, Scottish culture, and female friendships.
