Publisher's summary

In this scrumptious cozy mystery from New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Joanne Fluke, baker Hannah Swensen is tempted by a high-profile tournament in Lake Eden that quickly turns deadly….

Embracing a sweet escape from her usual routine at The Cookie Jar, Hannah gets asked for her help in baking pastries at the local inn for a flashy fishing competition with big prizes and even bigger names. But the fun stops when she spots a runway boat on the water and, on board, the lifeless body of the event’s renowned celebrity spokesperson….

Famed TV show host Sonny Bowman wasn’t humble about his ability to reel in winning catches, and no one knew that better than his tragically overworked sidekick, Joey. Did Joey finally take bloody revenge on his pompous boss - or was Sonny killed by a jealous contestant?

With goodies to bake and a mess of fresh challenges mixed into her personal life, it’s either sink or swim as Hannah joins forces with her sister, Andrea, to catch a clever culprit before another unsuspecting victim goes belly up....

Features over a dozen cookie and dessert recipes from the cookie jar!

Very disappointed in this book, the story could have been better written. It is the same old song, just married Hanna to Norman, and she could have twins a boy and girl and get this over with. I really hated the end. It is like a merry go round again and again. I love the recipes in this book but not the read. T is time for a change and be quick about it.

These Audible book purchases should include attached pdfs of the recipes narrated in the books.

A Good Listen

Liked the story development and I was surprised by the murderer. As usual, don't like the brief wrapup and the one sentence tease at the end of the book. I think the story should stand on it's own.

Interesting

I can't wait to see what transpires next book.
I still need closure on the whole Ross situation. I'm not sure where we are going with that.

way too many recipes. entertaining story

it was predictable but still entertaining. It would be much better if recipes were at the end.

Mike

I hope he isn’t leaving Lake Eden…
I wish the shows would come back on they were so good!

Lots of Motives to Bump Off a Heel

Hannah and her sister are helping out at the Inn during a big fishing tournament that's brought in a full house of guests, including drunk and lecherous Sonny Bowman, a TV fishing "personality" who knows little about fishing but looks great on camera. Sonny's engaged to his sponsor's daughter, but that doesn't prevent his chasing everything in skirts, so Hannah, her mom, and both sisters combine to get intoxicated Sonny off the dancefloor and taken to his room. But, the next day, when Sonny's found murdered in his boat, there are too many suspects, starting with his long-suffering assistant, who actually KNOWS about fishing but isn't as photogenic, his fiancée, many women, and many, many husbands husbands...

Not the greatest

I have read every Hannah Swenson novel and loved most of them; however I hated the one previous to this. It feels like the author is just writing to a formula now and I am not sure if I will purchase the next one.

Good mystery, but was hoping for more

I am feeling let down with Hannah not furthering her romance with Norman. You make it sound like he really is the on!y one for her, in the last book, so I wait and wait for this one, and and am disappointed that there really isn't much in it.

Recipes

Yes. In paperback recipes can be skipped over to get to the story. In audiobook form, we don’t have that option
