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.
The Baker's Wife was nearly impossible to put down! It centers around the choices people make and how they can affect others. I loved everything about it, especially the well-crafted characters. Audrey and Geoff are so likable, and Julie's disappearance had me puzzled until the very end. I also appreciated the reminder that everything must be forgiven...and that forgiveness brings freedom.

That book sounds like the kind that drives me crazy. I can never stand it when people are accused of things they didn't do and it doesn't resolve until the end. It sort of tortures me.
I know. I must be codependent.
;)
Dina, thanks a bunch for taking the time to read and comment on my book!
