“Every crumb hides a clue… if you know how to follow.”

In the lantern-lit town of Crumbville, clever calico spy Mary Droppins prefers shadows, secrets, and staying three steps ahead of everyone else. With her tartan bag in paw and a suspiciously innocent smile, Mary spends her mornings sipping cream outside Peppermint Café while quietly watching the town around her. But when Crumbville’s magical Spark-Sugar begins to vanish and strange clues appear across the rooftops and alleyways, Mary is drawn into a mystery far larger than she expected. Joined by an ingenious young inventor named Piper, she must untangle hidden clues and dangerous deception before sweetness itself disappears forever.

This cinematic middle-grade adventure blends mystery, humor, and heart into a magical tale about trust, courage, and the secrets we carry.

In Crumbville, even the smallest crumb may lead to the truth.
