Donuts and Deceit by P.B. Alden

Praise for Donuts and Deceit

There is no shortage of suspects in this cozy, tight-knit community—the perfect mix of humor and mystery. I found myself smiling as I was turning the pages. J.L. HYDE, author of Delta County


Vigilante or Hero? It's a fine line. 

In a peaceful North Carolina town, no one ever suspected something sinister was brewing beneath the surface. Walter, a self-proclaimed hero, dreams of solving a major crime but tends to get sidetracked. He doesn’t like lying to his wife, Martha, but sometimes it’s necessary. Disillusioned after years of marriage and bored in her spin cycle life, Martha meets a new friend when she steps out of her comfort zone. They quickly bond over their shared contempt for her friend’s no-good son-in-law. Is their friendship genuine, or is it as phony as the reality tv they both love?


When the small town’s dirty laundry is aired, one unorthodox do-gooder proves no task is too small or large to ensure justice is served. As tensions rise, the quirky cast of characters becomes embroiled in a web of deceit and betrayal. No one is above suspicion, and everyone has something to hide. Whose secrets will be revealed when someone ends up dead?

Donuts and Deceit is a thrilling mix of humor and suspense with twists and turns as unexpected as a jelly-filled surprise. This small-town whodunnit is a must-read, so grab a donut (or two) and settle in for a wild ride!
