A crime he says he never committed. Could Marcus really be innocent? Zoe is determined to uncover the truth. Even if it means hiding his letters and her investigation from the rest of her family. Everyone else thinks Zoe's worrying about doing a good job at her bakery internship and proving to her parents that she's worthy of auditioning for Food Network's Kids Bake Challenge. But with bakery confections on one part of her mind, and Marcus's conviction weighing heavily on the other, this is one recipe Zoe doesn't know how to balance. A warm and wise contemporary middle-grade novel by a fantastically talented debut writer. An incredibly moving and important story with important themes of racism and justice. Despite the big themes it sacrifices none of its middle-grade appeal - Zoe is a wonderfully lovable character and her journey is a real adventure.
