Warning. This isn't your typical cozy mystery. There's a splotch of blood, a dab of sex, a touch of off-color language, and a large dose of corny holiday names..

Holly Greene, owner of the Sugarplum Bakery, never expected the town's annual Gingerbread Bake-Off to end in murder. When celebrity judge Tessa Tinsel drops dead after tasting one of the entries, Holly finds herself tangled in a mystery thicker than her holiday frosting. With the whole town buzzing and a growing list of suspects, Holly's quiet life of baking takes a dangerous turn.

Determined to clear her bakery's name, Holly teams up with her best friend Holly Noel to investigate. As they dig into Tessa's life, secrets come to light -- rival bakers with grudges, old flames with axes to grind, and a trail of deceit that leads back to the kitchen. But things get complicated when Detective Chet Snowflake, with his smoldering good looks and no-nonsense attitude, starts asking Holly questions. Is he investigating her -- or flirting with her?

As more clues emerge, Holly stumbles upon a chilling piece of evidence: a common everyday ingredient swapped out for something deadly. Now it's up to Holly to find the killer before the gingerbread competition turns fatal for someone else. With Noel by her side and Chet on her mind, she races to unmask the culprit before the killer bakes up another crime.

Filled with humor, suspense, and plenty of holiday spirit, Gingerbread, Lies & Murder is a fast-paced cozy mystery that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Holly's got the recipe for solving this case -- if she can stay one step ahead of the murderer. Whatever happens, it's the biggest crime to hit Santa Claus, Iowa, since the reindeer learned to fly.
