Review #43
A Hannah Swensen Mystery with recipes!
It's June in Lake Eden, Minnesota, and for Hannah Swensen, that means bridal showers galore, plus a massive fundraising event in need of confections.
Early summer brings plenty of work for Hannah, even before Mayor Bascomb’s wife drops by The Cookie Jar to place an order ...for eleven-hundred cookies! Stephanie Bascomb is organizing an elaborate three-day event to support local charities, and though it's a worthy cause, Hannah almost flips when her business partner, Lisa, suggests setting up an apple turnover stand.
Hannah is working long hours at her bakery, the Cookie Jar, as well as dating two men, dentist Norman Rhodes and local Sheriff Mike Kingston. Her personal life gets more complicated with the reappearance of Bradford Ramsey, a college professor with whom Hannah had a brief fling when she was a naive graduate student. She’s hoping Bradford has forgotten the embarrassing episode. When Hannah winds up serving as a magician's assistant for a charity show, she has the misfortune to find Bradford, the show's host, backstage "stone cold dead" with a turnover in his hand.
Now, to protect her reputation and Michelle's, Hannah must get to the bottom of the professor's bitter end.
With her usual wit and flair, amateur sleuth Hannah narrows down the list of suspects in Bradford's murder, but can she catch the culprit before she becomes the next victim?
Another good book by Fluke plus scrumptious recipes including mocha nut butterballs and chocolate marshmallow cookie bars.
