The Sweet Sleuths: The Paws & Pasteries Problem

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

When crumbs lead to clues and pets become suspects… the Sweet Sleuths are on the case! Maplewood’s pets are showing up with mysterious pastry crumbs — and no one knows where they’re getting them. Is someone feeding them in secret? Is a rival bakery involved? Or is there a bigger mystery hiding beneath the powdered sugar? Casey, Elsie, and Faye follow a trail of paw prints, pastries, and puzzling clues across town — from the Crumble Café to the park, the pet shop, and beyond. But the deeper they dig, the more they realize this case isn’t about cookies… it’s about kindness, secrets, and a message someone’s too shy to say out loud.

Back In Maplewood

It's been over a year since Casey, Elsie, and Faye helped solve the mystery of the Cookie Bandit and became known for their treats and their pastry know-how. Lucky for them, they have 2 new employees and Sweet Sleuths to work with.

First on deck is Taffy Billing. Casey & Elsie's childhood friend from the boonies and Clue Analysis Extraordinaire.

Second is The Cookie Bandit herself, Poppy Glazewell. As part of her atonement to the town of Maplewood, she willingly agreed to work as a Sweet Sleuth to work off her sentence.

However, the girls have received little to no mystery casework since the Cookie Bandit Case wrapped up.

It seemed like the girls were going to work in Cumble Cafe under the same boring baking routine every day until a furry new case came crawling through the door.
