About The Case of the Bakery Break-In
Something sweet is missing in Oakwood… and it’s not just the doughnuts.
When trays of Mrs. Bellamy’s legendary Founders’ Favorites Doughnuts start disappearing from Sweetie’s Sweets Bakery, the young detectives of Oakwood—Maya, Leo, Alice, and Sam—smell more than sugar in the air. With suspicious footprints, a secret trapdoor, and a batch of bizarre recipes, the case quickly becomes their most mysterious (and messiest) yet.
But things take a twist when Ethan—the shy son of the town’s best baker—reveals a secret of his own: he’s been leaving doughnuts behind in hopes of contacting a long-lost secret society… the Curious Confectioners Club.
As flour flies and clues stack up, the kids must solve the mystery of the midnight break-ins, uncover the truth behind a forgotten baking guild, and stop two unlikely suspects before Oakwood’s sweetest recipes are lost forever.
Can the young sleuths crack the case without cracking the crust?

Author Bio:
Saga Welles writes stories filled with mystery, adventure, and just a touch of the unexpected. She’s always been drawn to hidden places, lost legends, and the quiet thrill of uncovering a long-buried secret. Her favorite stories are the ones that make you wonder: What if this were real?
As a kid, Saga spent hours in her local library, reading everything from ghost stories to history books—and sometimes making up her own endings. That love of storytelling never left. Now, she creates books for curious and brave readers who love puzzles, eerie encounters, and friendships that can stand up to anything.
When she’s not writing, you’ll find her wandering antique shops, exploring forest trails, or drinking way too much tea while scribbling in her notebook. She believes that every place has a story—and that the best ones are still waiting to be told.
