Quotes

  • “Who could have killed voluptuous Rhonda Scharf, whose half-buried body Hannah’ s interfering mother discovers in the basement of an old house one of Hannah’ s swains has just purchased? The investigation proceeds unhurriedly, with plenty of time for cookies, coffee and small-town gossip. Enticing recipes for cookies and other treats, presented with helpful procedural hints, are an extra bonus.” 

    — Publisher Weekly
  • “Suzanne Toren’s warm tones are perfectly suited to Fluke’s story. She adds a melodious quality to Hannah’s voice, which matches her personality, brings strength to her other boyfriend, Mike, and gives an appropriate innocence to the voice of a local man with developmental disabilities. Toren’s grace and ease in telling the story complement the narrative, making for a most enjoyable time.”

    " This book was another tasty book of recipes wrapped in a silly murder mystery package. The story is not believable and borderline childish. The part where it discusses pregnancy and "not being tired until the end" really irritated me. Great lemon meringue pie recipe though. "
