🌶️ Spice shop owner Saffron Sage is hosting a cooking demonstration for the town's annual Food Faire when the celebrity chef guest collapses mid-recipe—poisoned by a tainted spice blend from Saffron's own shelves. The police suspect accidental contamination, but Saffron's meticulous inventory system reveals someone has been tampering with her spice jars. With her business reputation on the line and the food blogging world watching, Saffron must grind out the truth. Assisted by her tea-reading grandmother and the handsome food chemist analyzing the poisoned spices, Saffron uncovers a bitter rivalry involving recipe theft, corporate espionage, and a secret spice smuggling ring. From suspicious salt crystals that form coded messages to chili powder blends that reveal unusual chemical compounds, every spice tells a story. But when Saffron discovers the victim was about to expose a massive food fraud operation targeting local restaurants, she realizes the killer is someone with deep knowledge of both spices and sabotage. With the Food Faire in full swing and the spice smuggler still operating, Saffron must separate the thyme from the danger before her shop becomes permanently closed.
