Hannah Swensen Mystery - 5: Fudge Cupcake Murder

Más información sobre el libro

Bakery owner Hannah Swensen finds herself in a sticky situation when a murder disrupts the peaceful town of Lake Eden, Minnesota. As the sheriff is found dead, an innocent deputy is accused, and a killer remains at large. Hannah's life feels bland despite her enjoyment of teaching a "Potluck Cooking Class" and her excitement for her sister Andrea's pregnancy. The tension rises with the sheriff's election, where Hannah's brother-in-law, Bill, challenges the long-standing Sheriff Grant, who is not handling the competition well, especially with Bill gaining popularity. Things take a dark turn when Hannah discovers Sheriff Grant's body in a dumpster behind the high school, complete with fudge frosting on his shirt from a cupcake she had given him earlier. With Bill as the prime suspect, Hannah refuses to accept the easy answer, knowing many in town had motives against the sheriff, who had a history of stealing glory from his deputies during election years. As Hannah delves into the investigation, she uncovers scandalous secrets and betrayals that keep the gossip mill at The Cookie Jar buzzing. The deeper she digs, the more dangerous the situation becomes, as she realizes someone wants her out of the kitchen—permanently. Will she be able to handle the heat and solve the mystery before it's too late?
