Survival of the Fritters

Deputy Donut Mystery Series, Book 1

De: Ginger Bolton

Narrado por: Emily Durante

If Emily has learned anything from her past as a 911 operator, it's to stay calm during stressful situations. But that's a tall order when one of her regulars, Georgia Treetor, goes missing. Georgia never skips morning cappuccinos with her knitting circle. Her pals fear the worst - especially Lois, a close friend who recently moved to town. As evening creeps in, Emily and the ladies search for Georgia at home. And they find her - murdered among a scattering of stale donuts....

Disturbingly, Georgia's demise coincides with the five-year anniversary of her son's murder, a case Emily's late detective husband failed to solve before his own sudden death. With Lois hiding secrets and an innocent man's life at stake, Emily's forced to revisit painful memories on her quest for answers.

Though someone's alibi is full of holes, only a sprinkling of clues have been left behind. And if Emily can't trace them back to a killer in time, her donut shop will end up permanently closed for business....

Enjoyable

I always like a good cozy mystery with an animal involved, but not in a personified way.

Cute Cozy Series Starter

I enjoyed this one - really liked the characters and the connection to law enforcement made some of the amateur sleuthing a little more believable than other cozies. It stuck to the usual cozy formula but the characters were fun and the donuts made me hungry! I’d like to get to know this crew.

Great story!

Enjoyed all the characters, the twists and turn helped keep you guessing… and I never did …so it was a surprise to learn the murderer! Well done!!
Looking forward to seeing then in next story‼️

Love this story

It was so easy to get sucked into this lovable world. Good twist in the story, great characters. Can’t wait to listen to more in this series!

I want this donut shop!!!

the mystery was very will done, with well timed twists. Kept me guessing till the end. I'll definitely buy the next book.
