Cherry Tart & Cold Secrets

As cherry trees come into bloom and the pie shop settles into a new rhythm, Maplewood looks gentler than ever. The town is bright with color, the streets are busy again, and the season seems determined to promise renewal.

That calm breaks when a local woman is found dead, drawing Emily Harper into a case shaped by carefully hidden resentments, old loyalties, and secrets that have survived by being mistaken for good manners.

Cherry Tart & Cold Secrets continues the Maplewood Pie Shop Mysteries with a more layered town, a sharper emotional chill beneath the surface, and a mystery that turns spring warmth into something far less reassuring.
