A Sweet Sixteen. A Shocking Death. And a Family Name Tied to Murder.

Mallory Beck has one mission: make Amber’s sixteenth birthday unforgettable—for all the right reasons. Between baking brioche, frosting pink lemonade cupcakes, and planning the perfect party, Mallory is determined to give the girl she loves like family a day full of joy.

But when a body is discovered at the historic Montrose Mansion, the celebration takes a terrifying turn. The only clue? A name that hits far too close to home.

With Amber’s family suddenly under suspicion, Mallory and hometown detective Alex Martinez must race to uncover the truth—quietly. The last thing Amber needs is a murder investigation crashing her birthday… or a secret that could shatter everything she’s looking forward to.

As friendships are tested, long-buried secrets surface, and a cranky crime-solving cat (who insists he’s a dog) inserts himself into the case, Mallory quickly learns that some mysteries refuse to stay hidden—no matter how carefully you try to protect the ones you love.

Perfect for fans of cozy mysteries filled with found family, small-town charm, gentle humor, and heart, Murder at the Montrose Mansion is another deliciously puzzling entry in the Mallory Beck Cozy Culinary Capers series.
