"Hollywood comes to Lake Eden and brings murder."

Lake Eden is the location for a new film. Having Hollywood take over the town causes many problems. Dean Lawrence, the director, hires Hannah, owner of the Cookie Jar Bakery, to deliver cheesecake to him twice a day. He is very demanding, both on the set and off.

Plus Hannah has two marriage proposals to consider. And everyone in town thinks they know who she should pick.

Dean demonstrates a suicide scene in front of the cast using the unloaded prop gun and falls down dead. Who switched the gun and how?

Hannah and her sisters end up investigating the crew. There is a long list of suspects. She has to her investigating without letting on that's what she's doing because she told Mike she wouldn't investigate. Can she discover the identity of the killer without putting herself or others in harm's way?

I love the characters and setting of this book. The talk of cookies, etc. being made always makes me hungry! I've never tried any of the recipes, but I'd like to some day.

I often find myself laughing out loud when reading books in this series. I highly recommend this book and series. It's delicious.
