About this ebook

When beloved Georgia baker Momma Peach agrees to help her friend Michelle search for missing LAPD detective Ben Fleishman, the last thing she expects is to find herself stranded in Gold Dust, Nevada—a dusty tourist trap in the middle of nowhere. But when a grisly discovery turns their rescue mission into a murder investigation, Momma Peach realizes this tiny desert town is hiding secrets deadlier than a rattlesnake's bite. With her trusty companion Old Mac the tarantula (Lord help her) and Michelle by her side, Momma Peach must navigate flooded caves, corrupt officials, and a web of deceit that reaches from Nevada to Mexico. As a violent storm threatens to wash the entire town away, she discovers that sometimes the most dangerous predators aren't the ones lurking in the desert—they're the ones you trust the most. But when the killer targets innocent children and threatens to bury the truth under tons of dynamite, Momma Peach must choose between her own safety and saving the community that's come to depend on her courage. Can a small-town baker with a big heart expose a conspiracy that goes deeper than the underground caves, or will Gold Dust become her final resting place? Some recipes are worth dying for—and some secrets are worth killing to keep.
