Gum Drop Dead: Cupcake Truck Mysteries

Isabel and her business partner Claire are working out of a borrowed truck that's too small for them, but they couldn't miss the opportunity to sell their cupcakes at the annual hot air balloon festival. It's the break they need to expand the business.

But the day goes from bad to worse to murder when a man plummets to his death from one of the hot air balloons.

The operator swears the man jumped out on his own. The man's family insists he wouldn't have killed himself.

Isabel finds herself in the middle of the investigation again, but more is at stake than she realized.

Especially when someone delivers a threat into the hands of one of the people Isabel loves the most.

This book is a clean mystery and contains no swearing, gore, or steamy bedroom scenes. While the series is best enjoyed in order, each book is a complete mystery on its own.
