Description: Annie's Scottish Bakehouse Mysteries: Silence of the Clams, Jan Fields Although their Scottish bakehouse, Bread on Arrival, is a recent addition to Loch Mallaig, Michigan, Molly Ferris, Carol MacCallan, and Laura Donovan feel like part of the family in their adopted town. The bakery already boasts a long line of regular customers, including the cantankerous matriarch of a local clan, Kathleen Ferguson, who pinches every penny and rubs most folks the wrong way. One morning, Kathleen’s teenage grandson tracks her down at the bakehouse with the mother of all grisly news: Human bones were discovered hidden in her basement wall, and they appear to have been put there by a killer. In the ensuing uproar, Kathleen commands Molly to investigate the skeleton’s sinister origins. Unfortunately, the top suspects all seem to be related to Kathleen, and each one is a chip off the ill-tempered block. Between getting caught in the crossfire of sibling rivalry and trying to navigate Kathleen’s mercurial moods, Molly struggles to make any headway in her search. Molly may feel as though she’s getting nowhere in her hunt for the truth, but somebody clearly thinks she’s digging too deep into the past, and they’ll do anything to stop her—even endanger her and her loved ones. Undaunted by the bad blood, however, Molly continues her pursuit of the killer. But can she uncover the clan’s darkest secret before someone else is imperiled, or will she find herself strangled by the ties that bind? Annie's Scottish Bakehouse Mysteries: Shepherds Lie, Elizabeth Penney A chilly Breeze swept through the grounds and made Molly shiver. With a groan, she realized she'd left her jacket in the lecture hall.She set off across the grass, taking a direct route to the barn. She skirted the back and side to the open front door. She stepped inside then halted, a scream rising to her lips. Annie's Scottish Bakehouse Mysteries: Lass and Found, Sandra Orchard Releases April 2020Tourists from near and far are exploring every corner of Loch Mallaig, Michigan, much to the delight of the Scottish-themed town’s many merchants—including bakehouse owners Carol MacCallan, Laura Donovan, and Molly Ferris, who no longer feel like babes in the woods now that Bread on Arrival is a community staple. In addition to out-of-towners, The Bakehouse Three also welcome plenty of regular local customers, such as outdoors enthusiast Jeanette Franklin, who loves taking their fresh baked oatcakes on her long hikes through the bonny Michigan wilderness.Unfortunately, tourist season veers into unnerving territory when Jeanette’s daughter, Annemarie, discovers that she and her adorable springer spaniel, Scout, are missing. Nearly frantic with worry, Annemarie engages Carol, Laura, and Molly’s help in locating her mother. At first, the women encourage Annemarie not to panic—Jeanette probably just went farther afield than usual on her latest hiking expedition. However, they all quickly realize that the longer Jeanette is gone, the more likely it is that disaster has struck. 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. Navigating tricky social terrain, the women organize 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?
