FEATURED HISTORICAL MYSTERY
The Vanishing of Ambrose Small
In December 1919, Toronto theatre magnate Ambrose Small vanished without a trace—leaving behind a fortune, a bewildered wife, and one of Canada’s most enduring unsolved mysteries that captured international attention.
Now, through a series of correspondence between two old friends, newspaper clippings, and whispered suspicions, you'll discover that everyone has a theory. Everyone seems to know something.
But someone knows more than they’re saying.

SEE WHAT'S BREWING

Coming November 2026!
In 1948, a family moved into a Calgary, Alberta home and made a grisly discovery beneath the floorboards: the mummified body of a person who was never reported missing. The discovery—and the unsolved murder behind it—are real.
In The Body Beneath the Floor, a curious old mirror begins revealing fragments of the night the victim died—glimpses no living witness could possibly provide. Now an investigator must piece together what the house had been hiding for nearly two decades...before the truth disappears again.

It all started at The Kitchen Table…
...while eating chocolate and sipping peppermint tea.
(Because chocolate + mint = heavmmmmly.)
Have you ever had a moment where a brilliant idea came to you while devouring chocolate?
Neither have we.
But...the brilliant idea did appear while scrolling on the toilet. (Don't tell us you haven't done that!)
And it continued in the kitchen over herbal tea, chocolate spread, and homemade Khorasan bread.
This is just the beginning, friend. We have so many more plans in the works for you!
