First in the New York Times-bestselling mystery series: "A cleverly plotted cozy full of appealing characters and delicious cookie recipes."-Publishers Weekly
Take one amateur sleuth. Mix in some eccentric Minnesota locals. Add a generous dollop of crackling suspense, and you've got the recipe for this mystery series featuring Hannah Swensen, the red-haired, cookie-baking heroine whose gingersnaps are almost as tart as her comments and whose penchant for solving crime is definitely stirring things up.
While dodging her mother's attempts to marry her off, Hannah runs The Cookie Jar, Lake Eden's most popular bakery. But after Ron LaSalle, the beloved deliveryman from the Cozy Cow Dairy, is found murdered behind her bakery-with Hannah's famous Chocolate Chip Crunchies scattered around him-she's determined not to let her cookies get a bad reputation, so 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.
"Culinary cozies don't get any tastier than this winning series."-Library Journal
