Thanks to a new backer, Heather and her family have decided to move to Key West, Florida, to open another Donut Delights shop. Unfortunately, another murder in there town may put a stop to their new plans. If they do move, will they be able to finally get the goods on an old nemesis before they leave town? This book has left me excitedly awaiting the next book in the series to see how everything plays out.

This book is a quick read with good twists but editing and proofing are still an issue.. Heather, Amy & Ryan must determine if the new business partner, Rudolph Rodney, is a killer as the evidence indicates. Are the Shepards moving or have the plans been adverted. Read to find out.
Looking forward to the next installment. I was provided a copy of this book and the opinions are my own.

Well, Rudolph Rodney is some hot water in this book. That always spells trouble when Heather is looking to enter into business with the man. There is one thing, however, I'm not sure hoe she's going to expand with a new investor while already having one. I guess it could be set up as a different legal entity... I'm not a business person so I'm not sure how that would work.

I did enjoy the book, up until Lyle was part of it again, but then again we can't seem to get rid of Lyle Clarke, even though Kate seems to have disappeared. I want Clarke to either be stuck in jail by the time Heather moves or never spoken about again.

I did enjoyed Amy much more in this book than the previous book. She seems to have finally understood what is going on. Heather is a business woman and she has to do what is best for the business.

Overall it was an interesting book.

Peach Cobler Murder is the 57th installment in Susan Gillard’s Donut Hole Cozy Mystery series and is a quick, easy, fun, and clean read but editing and proofing are still an issue.

When a local waitress, Mindy Montrose, is found murdered in her home, all the evidence points to Rudolph Rodney. This case is extremely troublesome for Heather because Rudolph is the investor who wants her to open a second Donut Delights in Key West, Florida.

So in book 57 it looks like Heather, Ryan, and Lilly are preparing to move to Key West. But before they go they have to solve one last case and this time it could derail their move to Florida. Reading this book was kind of slow for me but then there are so many twists and turns and once again decide story, that included Roadkill Rodney. However at the end of the book you kind of had a cliffhanger that had to do with one of our private investigators.

I'm not sure if this is the last book in The Donut Hole series but it was definitely one of the better books I have read in a long time.

Heather and her family is getting ready to move Key West but unfortunately her backer and is now accused of murder. This book has a lot of twists and turns and it's fun to figure out who actually was the murder. The characters are still wonderful to read about and I surely will continue to read the Author's books.

Heather has told her staff about her move to Key West to open another Donut Delights.
A waitress in town is murdered and Rudolph Rodney has been arrested for the crime. Did he really kill someone!?
Guess Heather won't be moving as her investor is not to be trusted and in jail!
Another fun, fast paced story to keep you guessing.
