**DISCOVER THE DELICIOUS MYSTERY THAT STARTED IT ALL!
**
No one cooks up a delectable, suspense-filled mystery quite like Hannah
Swensen, Joanne Fluke's dessert-baking, red-haired heroine whose
gingersnaps are as tart as her comebacks, and whose penchant for solving
crimes--one delicious clue at a time--has made her a bestselling
favorite. And it all began on these pages, with a bakery, a murder, and
some suddenly scandalous chocolate-chip crunchies. Featuring a bonus
short story and brand new, mouthwatering recipes, this new edition of
the very first Hannah Swensen mystery is sure to have readers coming
back for seconds...
Hannah already has her hands full trying to dodge her mother's attempts
to marry her off while running The Cookie Jar, Lake Eden's most popular
bakery. But once Ron LaSalle, the beloved delivery man from the Cozy Cow
Dairy, is found murdered behind her bakery with Hannah's famous
Chocolate Chip Crunchies scattered around him, her life just can't get
any worse. Determined not to let her cookies get a bad reputation, she
sets out to track down a killer. But if she doesn't watch her back,
Hannah's sweet life may get burned to a crisp.
Includes bonus short story and extra recipes!
"A cleverly plotted cozy full of appealing characters and delicious
