  On the shores of Lake Michigan, influencer Maddy Montgomery has turned the  
  bakery she inherited from her great-aunt Octavia into a destination. There’s just  
  one thing she won’t post: the body in the kitchen … 
  Thanks to Maddy’s social media savvy, Baby Cakes Bakery is becoming a huge  
  success—so much so that she’s attracted the attention of her former nemesis, the  
  fiancé-stealing Brandy Denton. When Brandy blows into New Bison like an ill wind  
  and disrupts a vlog Maddy’s filming, their argument goes viral. After Brandy’s  
  body is found at Baby Cakes, Maddy instantly goes from viral sensation to murder  
  suspect. 
  As Maddy is still reeling from the murder, a stranger shows up in the bakery  
  claiming to have been a friend of Octavia. He believes Maddy is in danger. When a  
  second body washes up on the lake shore, it seems clear someone’s out to kill to  
  keep a secret—and it may have to do with her great-aunt. 
  Maddy rallies her aunt’s friends, the Baker Street Irregulars, Sheriff April Johnson  
  and her veterinarian boyfriend Michael—not to mention her English mastiff  
  Baby—to do some digging and root out whoever’s behind the killings …

  upon transient encounters in local bars, restaurants, and hotels.  
   
  Culminating in a three-story cycle about a Hollywood actor, The Partition incisively examines heartbreak, identity, family, and relationships—the characters searching for answers to universal questions: Where do I belong? How can I find love? What defines an authentic self?
