A Call for Kelp: A Beachfront Cozy Mystery

A celebrity guest. A deadly documentary. And a trail of secrets as sticky as honey. This delightfully layered cozy mystery overflows with coastal charm, clever twists, and a heroine as fierce as she is funny. Perfect for fans of Laura Childs, Kate Carlisle, and Ellery Adams, it's a must-read for those who love small-town whodunits, quirky characters, slow-burn romance, and mouthwatering recipes. Things are buzzing in Charm, North Carolina when Everly Swan's aunts are tapped for a beekeeping documentary—and a glamorous Hollywood guest turns up dead. Suddenly, the quiet seaside town is swarming with reporters, suspects, and stinging secrets. As Everly's tea shop becomes ground zero for scandal and her family's reputation hangs in the balance, a chilling warning to "Bee Careful" arrives with a sting. With her relationship with Detective Grady Hays growing complicated, Everly must sort truth from trickery before someone else gets stung. Includes recipes straight from Everly's kitchen! Praise for A Call for Kelp: "A swarm of bee-centric suspects, a bit of sweet romance, and a surprise sting add up to a honey of a tale. " — Kirkus Reviews "The characters and the ongoing storyline just continues to get better in Bree Baker's series." — Lesa's Book Critique
