Search - Fudge Cupcake Murder (Hannah Swensen, Bk 5)

I'm really loving this whole series of books!

Bakery owner Hannah Swensen just can't keep her hands out of the batter when murder stirs things up in Lake Eden, Minnesota, leaving the sheriff dead, a deputy accused, and a killer on the loose.......

For Hannah, life seems to be lacking a certain flavor lately. Maybe it's the local sheriff's election that's got her down. For years, Sheriff Grant's been the iron hand in town. But now, Hannah's brother-in-law Bill is giving the old blowhard the fight of his long, dubious career-and Grant's not taking it well, especially once the polls show Bill pulling ahead.

But before anyone can taste victory, thing go sour. While Hannah's emptying the trash, she makes a very unappetizing discovery:Sheriff Grant's body in the Dumpster behind the high school where she's teaching her cooking class. And as if that weren't bad enough, the poor man still has fudge frosting on his shirt from one of her cupcakes.

The number one-and only-suspect is Bill, but Hannah's not swallowing it. Plenty of people had reason to hate Sheriff Grant. Soon, Hannah's dishing up a scandalous secrets, steaming hot betrayals, and enough intrigue to keep the gossip mill at The Cookie Jar going through several pots of decaf. And the closer Hannah gets to the truth, the closer she gets to smoking out a murderer with a very nasty recipe for silencing people.......

Hannah's brother-in-law is suspected of killing the sheriff and Hannah has to search for the truth. I love this series. This is a very good and fast-paced book. I plan on reading the rest of this series. The receipes that are included are a bonus too.

All of Joanne Fluke's books are good. If you want to sit down with a light-hearted good time book this is your author. I love her books. They are quick and easy to read and best of all, entertaining.

I really enjoyed this book. I have read the entire series and equally enjoyed them all.

I really enjoyed this book. And i really like some of the recipes. And her books seem to go pretty fast when you get started, and they are hard to put down.

This was a good quick read with mystery and opinions from the town as to who did it. Some of the recipes sound very good and I will try them.
