A best friend in deadly trouble, a case of mistaken identity, and the past that won’t go away!
Maddie's baked jelly doughnuts for Angel’s salon for a year. Out of the blue, the order is canceled by the doughnut loving hairdresser. It's the first sign that things aren’t right.
The second is when Angel's abusive ex-husband secretly arrives in town.
Then there's the fact that Maddie’s boyfriend, aka the sheriff, has been unable to crack a string of murders and the clues point to Angel. Someone obviously believes the sassy southerner holds the key to unlocking this mystery. A mystery they want to keep dead and buried.
With murder too close for comfort, Angel appears to have a target on her back.

Maddie handed her friend a strawberry-flavored, frosted doughnut in a napkin and put the other two in a bag then rang up the sale. Angel dropped the correct amount on the counter and delicately wiping her mouth, but the doughnut in her hand was barely touched.
Angel smiled, but for once it didn’t quite reach her eyes, and Maddie knew her friend was troubled.
“Something’s wrong. Tell me what’s happened.”
Angel waved the doughnut tragically in the air. “I don’t know where to begin, sugar.”
“Now I’m really worried.”
Angel took a deep breath as she gave a quick glance to Gran and Luke. They were all friends in the room and had been through a lot together, so Maddie waited.
“It’s Brad. He’s coming to town.” With a heavy sigh, Angel slipped her uneaten doughnut into the bag.
Maddie felt as though she had been punched in the stomach, so Angel must be sick at the prospect. It was no wonder she’d lost her appetite. The usual morning doughnut purchase had been nothing more than a habit.
“Maple Falls? After all this time? But, why?” she blurted before she could hold it back. Angel never held a grudge, even though her ex had mistreated her, but in Maddie’s eyes he wasn’t worthy of forgiveness.
“That’s exactly what I asked him when he called. I don’t know how he got my private phone number, and he was downright cagey about all his reasons, but apparently, he wants to make amends.”
“Wow. Are you going to meet him?” There was so much more Maddie wanted to add, but this wasn’t her decision to make.
“I am. I don’t particularly want to, but I can’t have Brad coming to the salon. A ranting man would be so bad for business,” Angel half-joked.
Maddie shook her head. This was no laughing matter.
