Strawberry Shortcake Murder

Description

A new season of small-town sweetness turns deadly when the president of Hartland Flour arrives in cozy Lake Eden, Minnesota, to launch the town’s first annual celebration—and a murder soon interrupts the festivities. As baker-turned-detective Hannah Swensen follows clues through a web of blackmail, hidden grudges, and long-buried community secrets, she must stay one step ahead of the police while the danger escalates. Blending mouthwatering recipes with brisk, twisty mystery plotting, this installment explores themes of trust, reinvention, and the surprising ways a community can protect its own. Joanne Fluke’s signature cozy-crime style delivers a page-turning investigation where every clue feels as tempting as the next slice.
