The strong scent of gingerbread is in the air in this collection of mystery novellas by a trio of whodunit specialists. The stories could scarcely be more different; Joanne Fluke’s „Gingerbread Cookie Murder” involves the homicide of a neighbor whose enemies outnumber even the sprinkles on your favorite confection. On the other hand, „The Dangers of Gingerbread Cookies” involves the suspicious „accidental” death of a playing a cookie treat in an amateur holiday theatre event. And arriving with the eggnog is Leslie Meier’s „Gingerbread Cookies and Gunshots,” a diverting tale about a murder and the disappearance of an adorable five-year-old sugar lover. (P.S. Gingerbread Cookie Murder contains tasty recipes to accompany the reading.)
