Perfect for you if...

You enjoy cosiness and quirky characters alongside genuine mystery plotting that keeps you guessing.
You like food and recipes woven into your fiction, especially if you actually want to bake the treats mentioned.
You want to start a long series where you genuinely care about the protagonist and her small-town circle.

Maybe not for you if...

You prefer dark or gritty crime fiction with complex moral ambiguity.
You find cosy mysteries too lightweight or the amateur sleuth trope frustratingly unrealistic.
You're looking for literary prose or experimental narrative structures.

About this book

This is the first Hannah Swensen mystery, featuring a new edition that includes a bonus short story and new recipes to mark the 25th anniversary of the series. Hannah Swensen runs The Cookie Jar, Lake Eden's most popular bakery, while managing her mother's attempts to arrange her marriage. When Ron LaSalle, a delivery man from the Cozy Cow Dairy, is found murdered behind her bakery with Hannah's famous Chocolate Chip Crunchies scattered around him, Hannah becomes determined to find the killer. Concerned about protecting her bakery's reputation, she investigates the crime herself, though doing so puts her in danger.
