Sweet treats, friendly service, and a proprietor who’s not afraid to be a little devious to do the right thing. Welcome to the Pobyd Perfections Bakery.
Magical baker Lillie Dean has moved to the idyllic town of Silverkeep in search of a fresh start. Magic is once again legal, and Lillie’s ready to show the world what a pobyd (a creature with a penchant for baking delicious sweets) can do unfettered. But Silverkeep is in an uproar, with the magical creatures who’d fled the queen’s reign returning to find their homes occupied by the nonmagical who’d been invited to fill the nearly-vacant town. To make matters worse, Lillie’s just received a letter threatening to reveal her mildly-villainous past if she doesn’t pack up and leave.
Lillie’s not one to blink in the face of a threat, nor is she going to take a note like that lying down. There’s an entire town full of suspects, including Julian Globe, the son of Lillie’s landlord and the owner of a rival bakery, who isn’t too pleased his father’s bankrolling his competition. But who would know about what Lillie did in Lower Pigsend, and why would they want her to leave?
