She\u2019s relocated to the tiny, lake-front, Michigan town of New Bison, which is hundreds of miles from the closest Jimmy Choo boutique. Her nemesis in love has suddenly made an appearance, trashing Maddy all over social media. And while the bakery she inherited from her great-aunt is turning into a rip-roaring success, it attracts more dead bodies than the city morgue. Yes, there is a lot going on in this series, and we can\u2019t forget the role of Baby, Maddy\u2019s English Mastiff, who\u2019s as expressive as any human. But one murder is rarely enough, and when a body washes ashore, it becomes clear that someone is out to suppress some important information. Once again Maddy needs to draw on the expertise of her great-aunt\u2019s friends, the Baker Street Irregulars. <strong>This series has it all: fun, fashion, and friendship.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Invincible is the adjective that comes most readily to mind when describing Maddy Montgomery, the hero in Valerie Burns\u2019 Baker Street series.
