Triple Chocolate Cheesecake Murder
Triple Chocolate Cheesecake Murder | Joanne Fluke
5 posts | 5 read | 1 reading | 3 to read
Spring has sprung in Lake Eden, Minnesota, but Hannah Swensen doesn’t have time to stop and smell the roses—not with hot cross buns to make, treats to bake, and a sister to exonerate! Hannah’s up to her ears with Easter orders rushing in at The Cookie Jar, plus a festive meal to prepare for a dinner party at her mother’s penthouse. But everything comes crashing to a halt when Hannah receives a panicked call from her sister Andrea—Mayor Richard Bascomb has been murdered . . . and Andrea is the prime suspect. Even with his reputation for being a bully, Mayor Bascomb—or “Ricky Ticky,” as Hannah’s mother likes to call him—had been unusually testy in the days leading up to his death, leaving Hannah to wonder if he knew he was in danger. Meanwhile, folks with a motive for mayoral murder are popping up in Lake Eden. Was it a beleaguered colleague? A political rival? A jealous wife? Or a scorned mistress? As orders pile up at The Cookie Jar—and children line up for Easter egg hunts—Hannah must spring into investigation mode and identify the real killer . . . before another murder happens! Features Over a Dozen Cookie and Dessert Recipes from The Cookie Jar!

"Want some coffee, Norman?" "That'd be swell, Hannah." "There's half a cup left, Norman. Do you want to split the half cup, Norman?" "That'd be swell, Hannah. We'd each get a quarter cup, Hannah." "That's right, Norman. I like that you're so good at math, Norman." "It's swell that you like that about me, Hannah." (Maybe not actual quotes, but it's close).

I'm done with this ridiculously bad series.

MegaWhoppingCosmicBookwyrm Oh my...that sounds extremely painful... 😟 4y
AlaMich 😂Yeah, kick that one to the curb! 4y
Traci1 @MegaWhoppingCosmicBookwyrm @AlaMich I feel like I have a pretty high tolerance for terrible books. But there was literally a scene in this one where a woman says "chassis," and her husband says "aw you learned something for your brothers working on cars." And she says she learned how to get oil stains out of their clothes. Man do car stuff. Woman do laundry. ? 4y
MegaWhoppingCosmicBookwyrm 😂🤣😂🤣 Wow. 4y

Fluke's books always make me hungry... I had to have a little sweet treat have the conclusion of this one 😋 Book 27 in the Hannah Swensen series has Hannah finding a way to clear her sister's name when she becomes a suspect in the mayor's murder. With typical Fluke cozy mystery charm an interesting series of events unfolds with a curious twist that I didn't see coming. And yet one question remains at the end of the book, (continued in comments)

TheHeartlandBookFairy will Hannah ever choose between Mike and Norman? Which one or, neither? And will she be able to move on and/or move home after her her brief and disastrous marriage? 4y

I was going to quit this series until Kensington sent me this one. I guess I‘ll give it one more chance!
