  🦃 Jam maker and cranberry farm owner Berry Sweet is hosting her family's annual Thanksgiving when the dinner's most contentious relative—a notorious food traditionalist opposed to recipe changes—is found dead in the pantry, a jar of suspicious cranberry sauce shattered around her. The police suspect an allergic reaction, but Berry notices the cranberry sauce has been deliberately over-sweetened and the victim's family recipe cards contain coded notes about ingredient substitutions. With her family gathering turning sour and generations of tradition at stake, Berry must strain through family secrets to find the truth. Assisted by her canning club friends and the handsome food chemist analyzing pectin levels, Berry uncovers a scheme involving recipe forgery, fruit substitution, and a plot to alter family culinary legacy. From suspicious gel points that reveal improper cooking to sugar content that doesn't match heirloom recipes, every jiggly spoonful tells a story. But when Berry discovers the victim was systematically altering family recipes to cut out certain relatives from inheriting culinary secrets, she realizes the killer is protecting family unity more precious than any preserved fruit. With Thanksgiving dinner imminent and the real recipe forger still stirring the pot, Berry must set the truth before her family's traditions get permanently canned.

  One small handwritten letter, sent from a distant corner of the planet and lost in the system for sixty years … is about to change the entire human race. 
    
  Outside Denver, Colorado, Joe Rickards stands over a small aircraft wreckage, studying burnt remains still smoldering in a field of freshly fallen snow … an investigator for the NTSB, working to carefully roll back the last several hours and identify the cause of the accident. 
    
  But this time, he can't. 
    
  The details behind this tragedy don't add up. Unlike every other investigation of Joe's career, the facts make no sense. Each new piece of information only makes the accident more mysterious, and more baffling. 
    
  Why would a person receive an age-old letter and suddenly disappear into the thick of night … paying to be flown out of a closed airport in the worst possible weather conditions, by a pilot who hadn't had his hand on the stick in years? 
    
  With the only surviving relative insisting her grandfather would never have climbed into a small airplane in the first place, even in perfect weather. 
    
  A bizarre string of events culminating in a horrible accident unlike anything Rickards has experienced. Leaving his only hope at understanding it in the hands of the victim's sole remaining relative. Beginning with how a mysterious letter could turn up after being lost in the system for sixty years. Sent by someone who should have already been long dead. 
    
  A single letter, Joe Rickards is about to discover, with a secret that will change the entire world.
