When bakery owner Olivia Baker agrees to cater a heritage event in the picturesque village of Castleton, she expects little more than tourists, local gossip, and a busy weekend serving fresh pastries.

Instead, she finds herself caught in the middle of a deadly mystery linked to the ancient cave systems hidden beneath the Peak District.

After a local historian vanishes while investigating forgotten underground passages, Olivia uncovers evidence of a long-buried conspiracy stretching back decades. Then a body is discovered near one of Castleton’s famous caverns — and suddenly everyone in the village has something to hide.

As Olivia digs deeper into secret tunnels, hidden maps, and dangerous local rivalries, she discovers that the caves beneath Castleton hold far more than history.

They hold motive.

And someone is willing to kill to keep the truth buried forever.
