These days, everyone in Lake Eden, Minnesota, is buzzing
with activity, and Hannah Swensen is no exception. But no
matter how busy she may be, Hannah can always find time to
help a friend in need—especially when he’s been murdered…
Hannah Swensen has to 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 in the rectory,
face-down in a plate full of Devil’s Food Cake, a single
bullet in his head.
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. But could the
gold Sacagawea coins in Sunday’s collection plate hold the
key to solving the crime? Or is the murder connected to that
big jewel heist out in Minneapolis? Is it possible that
Matthew’s love of chocolate somehow led to his downfall? 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…
