Summary

In this batch of sweet, short murder mysteries, three cooks don’t spoil the broth.

New York Times best-selling author Joanne Fluke pens the title story, in which a box of Hannah Swensen’s gingerbread cookies is found near the corpse of her neighbor.

Popular co-authors Laura Levine and Leslie Meier offer “The Dangers of Gingerbread Cookies” and “Gingerbread Cookies and Gunshots”, respectively.

Together, these three cozies will entertain listeners while compelling them to think twice about a cherished holiday treat.

Critic reviews

"Fluke, Levine, and Meier each offer a yuletide whodunit treat.... In Fluke's wry "Gingerbread Cookie Murder," Hannah Swensen of the Cookie Jar in Lake Eden, Minn., wants her neighbor Ernie Kusak to simply lower the volume on his too loud Christmas outdoor display, but she soon discovers Ernie with his head bashed in. In Levine's hilarious "The Dangers of Gingerbread Cookies," Jaine Austen's holiday stay at her parents' home in the Tampa Vistas retirement community is enlivened by the murder of elderly lothario Dr. Preston McCay, whose neck gets broken during his star turn in an amateur play called The Gingerbread Cookie That Saved Christmas. Rounding out the volume is Meier's less cheery but poignant "Gingerbread Cookies and Gunshots," about Maine reporter Lucy Stone's investigation of a four-year-old boy's disappearance." ( Publishers Weekly)

GingerBread Cookie Murder

Don't waste your time or money on this one. So short, and not of the quality of her other work. Then the other two books are not up to the quality of Fluke. So sorry I wasted my money and a credit on this book.

Loved Joanne Fluke Mystery

I loved the Joanne Fluke story with Hannah, not crazy about the other stories. I also love the narrator for the Hannah stories.

I really wanted to like it...

I really wanted to like this set of story's, because i love and collect both Joanne fluke and Leslie Meier books. With the exception to the fist story by Joanne Fluke the rest are not up to snuff. They fall flat and where lacking. Made me sad. I wouldn't recommend this book.

I really liked this purchase

It was several books, of which i was unaware. The last story was less ‘cozy’ and more ‘dicey’ but it wasn’t so stressful that i had to stop listening.

Narration

The narrators were tedious to listen to. Laura Levine & Leslie Meier
Story lines were tiresome.

13.5 Book

This was a very short story. I was excited when the length was over 11 hours. However, the Murder She Baked story was only 3 hours. That was very disappointing. No time for character or story development.

so-so

Middle book ho- hum. The Jo Ann Fluke novel was good as usual. The middle book was kind of silly. There are a ton of recipes!
