This is yet another in the series of Hannah Swenson books where she figures out “who done it” before the police (Mike) and other officers. Plenty twists and turns as usual in these Joanne Fluke books. A pleasant quick read.

Don't read this book on an empty stomach! Just the description of the cherry cheesecake that Hannah bakes will send you running for the refrigerator. The drawing on the front cover is enough to make you drool. Predictably, the character that demands this toothsome dessert drops dead, and Hannah is the only one who can figure out whodunnit and why. But the story is as enjoyable as the recipes that accompany it, and Hannah, her family and friends are all believable and fun to be around. So preheat your oven, set your timer and catch up with your friends in Minnesota. Just watch those calories!

From fending off two marriage proposals and finding out the town had
a bet, Hannah stops all the rumors as a movie crew is coming to town.
The director loves her cherry cheesecake, but then he is murdered.
Who wanted him dead? Can Hannah find out? Must read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love This Series
Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2010

All the Hannah Swenson Mysteries are wonderful they are light hearted make you smile mysteries "cozy mysteries" (not scary, gory, or sad) but they are actually really good "keep you guessing" mysteries. I have read the first four and have now bought all Hannah books and anthologies for my Kindle, I just cannot put them down. Plus if you are someone who likes to bake you will love all the recipes that come with each story. I just book mark each recipe as I come to it on my Kindle and then they are super easy to find when I need them. I would recommend the entire series. Also the author, Joanne Fluke, is super nice. I e-mailed her once, when one of the cookie recipes I made did not turn out right, just to see what I might have done wrong and she actually e-mailed me back a couple hours later. Just a super nice person and a wonderful mystery writer.

Joanne Fluke is one of my favorite mystery writers. The interactions of her very lifelike characters add more dimension that can be funny or sad
or heartwarming, welcome additions to a mystery story. She also offers some really good recipes! If you love to bake, you're likely find yourself copying at least some of them!

3.0 out of 5 stars Lights, Camera Murder
Reviewed in the United States on June 11, 2006

Movie Mania has come to Lake Eden, when a big Hollywood production is using the town for several scenes.

Hannah Swensen, owner of The Cookie Jar finds out that old college friends, Ross Barton and Lynne Larchmont are the producer and leading lady.

Hannah is even more excited when she finds out she gets to provide some of the food for a major scene in the movie, what publicity. She is also able to provide the director Dean Lawrence daily with his favorite food, cherry cheesecake.

Everything is going well, until while demonstrating the suicide scene for his actor, Dean accidentally shoots himself with a prop gun.

Who put real bullets in the gun? Was it one of the multitude of women that snuck out of his trailer every morning.? One of whom was Lynne Larchmont. Was it her older husband Tom, who was financing the movie. What about local Winnie Henderson who had threatened to kill Dean.

Hannah decides she has to investigate if for no other reason than to find out why her sister, Andrea was also one of the women who snuck out of the trailer.

Highlights:

Hannah and her family & friends are wonderful together, her sisters Andrea and Michelle. Lisa - her partner in The Cookie Jar. Andrea's husband Bill, who's the sheriff. Her mom, Norman's mom. They act like real family and close friends.

Moishe, her cat. A great character all on his own.

Norman Rhodes - the town dentist. The perfect man for Hannah.

The mystery. Almost like a locked room mystery. Everyone is on the set, everyone watches the prop man and Detective Mike Kingston check the prop gun to make sure it's safe before putting it into the drawer, that it will be pulled from and then the scene starts, camera's rolling and in that time someone switches the gun.

Great Recipes as always.

Lowlights:

Hannah dating Ross Barton. Since both Norman and Mike have asked her to marry them, and she can't make up her mind, Hannah should either say no to both or accept one, but to keep them dangling and then start dating a third guy isn't very nice.

Hannah's marital dilemma. Her dating of Norman and Mike was interesting and fun at the beginning, but it's beginning to be boring. Either pick one or dump them both, the fact that to me Norman is the much better choice, makes you wonder what will happen to Mike if she does make a decision. (The perfect solution to this triangle, unfortunately was murdered in the last book).

The mystery. I like the locked room aspect of it, but the books almost over before it even happens.

Looking forward to the next one.

Fluke's books are what a friend of mine calls "mind candy." They are light and entertaining but don't have any real substance. What they DO have is both suspense and humor -- plus a strong female character -- so they are quick reads that bring a few laughs and allow the reader to relax and enjoy the time spent.

Die Hannah Swensen Mysteries sind einfach nur gut! Eine perfekte Mischung aus Witz, Romantik und natürlich Spannung! Oft weiß man bis zum Schluss nicht so Recht, wer der Mörder ist, verdächtigt die falschen Personen.
Was mir besonders gefällt, ist die Beschreibung von Lake Eden und deren Bewohner. Obwohl man noch nie dort war, hat man das Gefühl, bald jeden Winkel der Stadt zu kennen und die Bewohner werden zu Freunden und Bekannten!
Zum Inhalt des Buches muss hier nichts mehr gesagt werden, auch der Klappentext gibt schon viel Preis.
Auch auf Englisch sind die Bücher gut zu verstehen.
Die Rezepte habe ich leider noch nicht ausprobiert.

このシリーズ、翻訳本・ペーパバックともどもお約束のごとく購入しています。
翻訳版は肩もこらずに楽しく読めちゃうし、英語がそれほど得意じゃなくたってペーパバック版も不思議とお話について行けるの。。
うんうん、最近はハンナやデロリス、ノーマン達が勝手に耳元で会話を弾ませてくれてるしっ♪
まるで黒子のようにお話の中にいて、みんなを眺めている気分にさせてくれるシリーズです。
でもね、でもね、今回はちょっとぉ〜
事件が起こるのはホントに最後の最後。
延々と「ハンナと二人の殿方」and 映画のできるまでみたいで、ちょっと物足りないなあ。
なんとなく会話のテンポも内容もイマイチな感じでした。
翻訳がでて読み返すまでは、とりあえず☆３つという評価で。
