Curds of Suspicion. A Penelope Alderidge Cozy Mystery, Book 1 of 3 (en Inglés) - Horsecreek Digital;Bailey Matlock

Fresh chèvre. Small-town secrets. A threatening note.

When Penelope Alderidge returns to her parents' goat farm in Meadow Hollow, she plans to focus on one thing: rebuilding the family creamery and perfecting her artisanal cheeses.

But someone else has plans.

Anonymous notes begin appearing in her supply orders - critiques of her flavor profiles, fermentation timing, even her aging temperatures. At first, they feel unsettling.

Until one ends with:

"Your next batch may be your last."

When a rival dairy farmer collapses during a tasting event and is later declared dead from poisoning, suspicion spreads quickly - and Penelope's creamery sits squarely in the spotlight.

Her cheese was served.
Her name was announced.
And her anonymous critic has vanished.

To clear her name, Penelope must rely on her understanding of flavor science, her quiet observational skills, and the stubborn loyalty of her best friend Clara.

Because in Meadow Hollow, reputation spreads faster than bacteria cultures.

And someone is willing to ruin hers.

Perfect for readers who love culinary cozy mysteries, small-town intrigue, and intelligent female sleuths, Curds of Suspicion introduces a charming new series where fermentation, friendship, and quiet persistence solve crimes.

Some secrets age well.

Others curdle.
