by Joanne Fluke

Book 15 of the Hannah Swensen series

335 pages · First published 2012

Baker Hannah Swensen is preparing cinnamon rolls for Lake Eden’s jazz festival when the visiting Cinnamon Roll Six suffers a bus accident on the way into town. Keyboard player Buddy Neiman initially appears to have escaped with manageable injuries, but he is soon found murdered at the hospital. Hannah’s curiosity pulls her into the musician’s private life even as her own romantic complications continue simmering. Joanne Fluke’s Hannah Swensen cozy mystery combines small-town murder, baking, recipes, and amateur detection around a victim whose apparently sweet public life contains dangerous secrets.
