To save her husband and son, Audrey Bofinger must rescue her enemy.

The Bofinger family has lost their church ministry in a scandal exposed by Officer Jack Mansfield. Hoping to heal and to restore their reputation, Audrey, Geoff, and their son Ed take over a failing bakery in the small community.

Driving to the bakery one morning, blinded by fog, Audrey hits a motor scooter owned by Jack’s wife, Julie. The mangled scooter is crushed and bloody. But Julie is nowhere to be found. Her disappearance coincides with a sudden illness that nearly cripples Audrey.

Jack believes the Bofingers have hurt Julie to take revenge on him, but the evidence dries up and her trail goes cold. At a breaking point, Jack takes the tiny bakery and its patrons hostage, issuing only one demand: Audrey has six hours to return Julie to him, or lose Geoff and Ed forever.

With only an excruciating and intuitive gift, an ex-con, and Julie’s estranged daughter to help search for clues, Audrey starts the search of her life for a woman who has vanished like the fog.



This heartwarming mystery follows the family, Ex-Pastor, Geoff his wife, Audrey,  and their teenage son, Ed. Because of a scandalous rumor spread by a church elder, Geoff is banned from the church. Now the family must start over and give everything including their trust to the Lord.

Doing everything in their power to hold the family together, they open a bakery. One foggy morning, while Audrey was driving to work her car hits something. Getting out to investigate what happened, she finds a motor scooter belonging to a local teacher. Blood is everywhere, but there's no trace of a body.

The victim's husband, a detective and elder at their former church arrives at their bakery and threatens that he will hold everyone hostage until Audrey can produce his wife's body. Audrey finds herself relying on a troubled teen and a woman recently released from prison to help her find the victim before her husband and son die.

The Intriguing characters along with this fast paced Novel will keep you turning the pages!  Check out what others are saying about this read.
