Cookies and Haunted Screams

Discover the first book in a brand new series from cozy mystery author, Ava Zuma.When Jess is invited to cater the grand opening of a new hotel in her small town, she's thrilled at the chance to dazzle the guests with her delicious creations. But her excitement is quickly dampened by whispers among her co-workers about the hotel's dark past-rumors of restless spirits and a haunting that no one can explain.

Those eerie tales take a chilling turn when the hotel's owner suddenly drops dead under suspicious circumstances on the very day of the grand opening. Jess's treats are immediately seized by the authorities for examination, casting a shadow of doubt over her and her culinary creations.

But Jess knows her desserts didn't kill anyone-so who, or what, did?

Determined to clear her name and uncover the truth, Jess must confront her deepest fears and push through domestic distractions to track down a clever killer. If she fails, she might find herself next on the list in a deadly game of cat and mouse.
