The Castleton Conspiracy. The Flour Power Mysteries Book 9 - A British Culinary Cozy Mystery Thriller with Murder, Hidden Caves, Village Secrets, and a Female Amateur Sleuth - Andy Nichols

When bakery owner Olivia Baker agrees to cater a heritage event in the picturesque village of Castleton, she expects little more than tourists, local gossip, and a busy weekend serving fresh pastries.

Instead, she finds herself caught in the middle of a deadly mystery linked to the ancient cave systems hidden beneath the Peak District.

After a local historian vanishes while investigating forgotten underground passages, Olivia uncovers evidence of a long-buried conspiracy stretching back decades. Then a body is discovered near one of Castleton's famous caverns - and suddenly everyone in the village has something to hide.

As Olivia digs deeper into secret tunnels, hidden maps, and dangerous local rivalries, she discovers that the caves beneath Castleton hold far more than history.

They hold motive.

And someone is willing to kill to keep the truth buried forever.

Sharp-minded, warm-hearted, and impossible to fool, Olivia Baker never intended to become Derbyshire's unofficial detective.

But between running her thriving bakery and uncovering murders hidden beneath the surface of village life, Olivia has developed a reputation for solving the cases nobody else can.

In Castleton, however, she may have finally found a mystery more dangerous than she's prepared for.

Because some secrets should stay underground.
