A traveling circus. A mysterious medallion. And a waffle witch with more questions than syrup.
When Cirque Mystique rolls into Starfall Glen, Maple Winslow is ready for sparkles, spectacle, and selling waffles to the crowds. But when the ringmaster’s signature illusion ends in disaster, Maple finds herself center stage in a mystery with more twists than a trapeze act.
Armed with her mind-reading pup Pecan, a dash of inherited magic, and one hunky mechanic who can’t stay out of trouble (or the waffle cart), Maple juggles jealous performers, cursed props, and hidden legacies that hit a little too close to home. Because the deeper she digs, the clearer it becomes—this murder wasn’t just a misstep. It was a message.
The show must go on… unless Maple and Pecan can unmask the killer before someone else takes their final bow.
Hello from the cozy corners of my imagination! If we were meeting in person, you'd probably find me offering you a slice of cake, extra frosting, because life's too short!
I craft twisty tales with quirky characters, picturesque small towns, and enough red herrings to stock a fish market. My stories blend mystery and mirth, with a dash of romance and plenty of fur-baby shenanigans.
If you like your murders with giggles, sleuths with razor-sharp wit, and surprising plot twists—dive into one of my books. Warning: may cause cravings for homemade cookies and the urge to adopt a mischievous pet.View all by Sue Hollowell
