A Pinch of Dry Mustard

Natalie Pickford Andrews gives birth to a baby girl at the young age of eighteen and her parents force her to give the baby up for adoption. After she attempts to commit suicide, she is no longer physically able to have a child of her own. Obsessed by what she can no longer have, Natalie becomes involved in a series of drug dealings, kidnapping, and an attempted murder to get a child which she so desperately wants- even if it means seeking out and abducting her own daughter's child.

Sarah Waverly Kestwick, Natalie's biological and musically talented daughter is aware of her adoption but has no idea who her birth parents are nor does she care to know. She has no idea that her biological mother is crafting an evil scheme to kidnap Sarah's unborn child and claim it as her own. Sarah's faith in God guides her through her difficult delivery and the pain she suffers when her husband, Ben, goes missing at sea.

A Pinch of Dry Mustard takes place over a three-day period in a quaint fishing village along the coast of Maine. It is an intriguing mystery and a family's ultimate testament to faith, hope, and love.
