Straight from the surefire pantry of New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Joanne Fluke, a classic cozy mystery in which baker Hannah Swensen discovers that sometimes life can be a little too sweet . . .
Hannah Swensen must admit that her life is pretty sweet. Things are going well in the romance department, and her bakery's delectable confections are selling almost as fast as she can bake them. Even her good friend Claire is on cloud nine, head over heels with her new husband, Reverend Bob Knudson. If only they could find time to take their honeymoon!
When Bob's childhood friend Matthew Walters comes to town, it seems like divine intervention. Matthew, like Bob, is a Lutheran minister with a stubborn sweet tooth. Since he's on sabbatical, Matthew is happy to fill in for Bob while he and Claire take that long-awaited honeymoon. It sounds like the perfect plan--until Hannah finds Matthew dead in the rectory, face-down in a plate full of Devil's Food Cake.
Determined to find out who killed Matthew, Hannah starts asking questions--and discovers that the good Reverend wasn't quite the saintly fellow he appeared to be. It will take some more digging to find out, but Hannah is sure of one thing: even the most half-baked murder plot can be oh so deadly . . .

4.25 starsHannah’s personal life was like some kind of soap opera. I couldn’t even believe what I was reading. Then that ending really took the cake. Drama. Drama. Drama, yet it was entertaining at the same time.The mystery was a mind whirl because there was so much back and forth. It was hard to know what was fact and what was fiction. I thought I knew what was happening but apparently not. It was quite the twisty ride.
Good story with smooth transitions. If you like mysteries, this one is entertaining with a few twist. I highly recommend for mystery lovers.
I enjoyed the twists in this mystery, but grow tired of the whole Norman/Mike thing. Why doesn'tshe pick one or the other? I am glad I have read some of the books out of order, but still know whatis going on. Worth a read.
It's a book of twist and turns. Just when you think it's one thing it's something else I love all her stores
This book has a lot of interesting new confusing clues. With Hannah and her sisters working to figure them out.
