Chocolate Cream Pie Murder

by Joanne Fluke

Fans of small town Lake Eden and baker, Hannah Swenson, will no doubt enjoy this 24th entry in the long running series.

Here is the publisher’s synopsis of this title:

When The Cookie Jar becomes the setting of a star-studded TV special about movies filmed in Minnesota, Hannah hopes to shine the spotlight on her bakery—not the unsavory scandal swirling around her personal life. But that’s practically impossible with a disturbing visit from the shifty character she once believed was her one and only love, a group of bodyguards following her every move, and a murder victim in her bedroom. Now, swapping the crime scene in her condo for her mother Delores’s penthouse, Hannah and an old flame team up to solve a case that’s messier than an upended chocolate cream pie. As suspects emerge and secrets hit close to home, Hannah must serve a hefty helping of justice to an unnamed killer prowling around Lake Eden…before someone takes a slice out of her!

So, as readers can see a lot is going on here. It is good to know that Hannah always comes out okay in the end. Readers will be treated to a good story line, some vicarious baked goods and a number of recipes.

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this title. All opinions are my own.
