April is a busy time for Hannah Swenson and her bakery; there's just something about the warm weather that makes folks in Lake Eden crave something sweet When Hannah hears that the Cinnamon Roll Six jazz band will be playing at the town's Weekend Jazz Festival, she's more than happy to bake up a generous supply of their namesake confections to welcome the band to town.
Before the festival even begins, tragedy strikes when the Cinnamon Roll Six's tour bus overturns on its way into town. Among those injured is Buddy Neiman, the band's beloved keyboard player. At first Buddy's injuries appear minor, until his condition suddenly takes a turn for the worse--as in dead. Hannah's no doctor, but she suspects that the surgical scissors someone plunged into Buddy's chest may have something to do with it.
Once the investigation into Buddy's death begins, a slew of suspicious facts come to light. It turns out that Buddy Neiman isn't the victim's real name. In fact, no one is really sure who he is, or what secrets may be lurking in his past. Hannah also has her eye on a few local suspects. There's Doctor Bev, who seems to know more about the victim than she's willing to admit. And Devon Murphy, the aspiring young keyboard player who wanted a spot in the band so much, he just might have killed for it. Truth be told, Hannah isn't sure just how she'll unravel the mystery, but one thing's for sure: there's nothing sweeter than bringing a killer to justice.
My review:
Cinnamon roll murder is the 15th book in the Hannah Swensen mystery series.I have loved this series for a long time and always can't wait for the next book to come out.This time around cinnamon roll murder did not meet my expectations.Hannah's involvement in the murder investigation this time was weak.The murder was not really talked about like in the other books in the series.The book forced more on Hannah and her sisters trying to find dirt on Doctor Bev.I didn't like the way the book turned out to be in the end.I hope the next book is better.There was some funny parts in the book that made you lol (laugh out loud),but in the end I wish it was better.At the end of some chapters there is recipes(22 recipes). At the end of the book there is a recipe index and baking conversion chart.
