About this listen
A murdered aristocrat. A popular family with dark secrets. A frustrated baker identified as the prime suspect.
When Meghan receives an order to bake a cake for a wealthy individual in town, she’s happy to wow them with her culinary skills. However, she’s not happy with this person’s condescending, impatient, and unpleasant behavior. But she’s ready to put up with it, as she believes it’ll lead to more business.
She’s in for a rude surprise when this new customer is found dead…and her treats are identified as the cause of the deceased’s demise.
Meghan is left feeling miserable and helpless as she deals with the drama from the local community while she’s drowning from the tension and strain in her marriage due to a desire she expressed.
Meghan knows no amount of crying, complaining, or cajoling will change the guilty verdict that’s been passed against her in the court of public opinion.
She knows she only has one option to return normalcy to her life. And that is to fight!
She needs to fight to clear her name.
She needs to fight to save her business.
She needs to fight to restore peace in her marriage and every area of her life.
If she doesn't, it could spell the end of everything she’s worked so hard for, and she could end up being the killer’s next victim.
If you want to enjoy a lighthearted listen with an amateur female sleuth, mouth-watering culinary desserts, and a gripping murder mystery with a touch of romance, then you'll love Meghan and all the quirky characters in Sandy Bay. No cliff-hanger, swearing, or graphic scenes!
Treat yourself or a loved one to a copy of Xylose Treats and Killer Sweets and see how events unfold in this cozy mystery.

Story
Milly Pepper has two loves: solving murder cases, and her pet bunny, Waffle. But life in the small town, Star Lake, Iowa, involves only one of those things—Waffle. The rest of her time is dedicated to running the failing Starlight Café. Milly’s determined to make the café a success for the sake of her father’s legacy, even if it means setting aside her aspirations to take her detective’s test to solve cases in the city. But when she wakes up one morning and finds her neighbor dead in front of the waffle station, Milly has to investigate the case or lose the café for good.

Story
After her grumpy husband dies, Sally throws out his thread-worn plaid recliner, cashes the life insurance check, and lets her spunky best friend, Pearl, drag her to Mexico for an all-inclusive vacation using their Senior Citizen’s discount. They kayak, sing karaoke, and spy on the next-door nudist resort. Sally’s not sure if it’s the sun or tequila, but she is truly having fun for the first time in her life. That is, until a fellow guest turns up dead. While Sally fearfully packs her bags for home, Pearl insists they stay and get to the bottom of what’s happened.

A Sweet Cozy
Xylose Treats and Killer Sweets is Book 24 in A Sandy Bay Cozy Mystery by Amber Crews. I love this series. The characters are wonderful, well developed and the relationships grow naturally from book 1 through each book. Meghan is now married to Jack, her Police Detective, and the newly married couple is having realistic problems that all newly married have. Amber Crews has placed Meghan teaching children baking lessons for Bible Camp which leads to a catering job which leads to a murder. This cozy is fun, mysterious, and totally fantastic! I can't wait to see what adventure is next for Meghan and Jack.
