Fudge Cupcake Murder
Fudge Cupcake Murder | Joanne Fluke
19 posts | 36 read | 9 to read
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, things 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 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. . . Includes Ten Original Dessert Recipes For You To Try! "For fans of culinary mysteries."--Library Journal "Fudge Cupcake Murder should not be read on an empty stomach because there are mouth-watering recipes and descriptions of desserts in almost every chapter." --The Midwest Book Review

bthegood In most of the series I'm reading I forget the actual murder mystery specifics but it is the MCs that I do remember and like - which is why I keep reading those series! 🙂 2mo

This might have been my favourite of the Hannah Swenson series so far I loved how halloweeny it was (and so many word search points!)

“M onday morning came earlier than Hannah anticipated. It arrived at four-thirty in the morning when she rolled over on what felt like small boulders in her bed and discovered that Moishe had brought her the contents of his food bowl during the night.”

These made a great Hallmark series but I find the books a tad dull. This is the second in the series I read and I don‘t plan to read more. Though I didn‘t plan to read this, so you never know. #scarathlon

The Day 4 #scarathlondailyprompts is scream.
“Hannah had just turned to group three to see how their pie was coming when she heard a bloodcurdling scream.”
I love this Hallmark series so I read the first book a few years ago. I found it a bit boring and decided not to continue with it. For #TeamSlaughter I‘m giving it another go, skipping to book 5, set in October. #scarathlon

This book had three mysteries to be solved including the murder. I still have a problem with the triangle but since it is written in the first person I will have to put up with the elaborate details for Hannah's personal life. If you like cozy mystery you will enjoy this one and lets not forget all the new recipes.

It was a cute quick read. I like my mysteries a little darker but if you like hallmark and wholesome characters this would be a treat! Bonus points for baking recipes throughout the book.
