Sally Muccio is due to have her baby at any moment. In the meantime, she’s savoring the holiday season. Her bakery, Sally’s Samples, is doing well and she’s enjoying baking with her best friend, Josie. Unfortunately, carjacked by Santas, and things quickly head downhill from there. Can the police really believe a nine months pregnant Sally is guilty of murder?
I laughed until I cried. . . and then I laughed some more! GINGER SNAPPED TO DEATH is guaranteed to make you realize that your family isn’t the craziest one at Christmas, even as you fall in love with Catherine Bruns’ characters. Sally’s husband, Mike, has to be a saint for putting up with Sally’s family but oh am I ever glad he does! Sally’s father loves all things about death and some of the ideas he has in GINGER SNAPPED TO DEATH are just hysterically funny. Never mind the future mother-in-law of Sally’s sister or the twisted sayings from Sally’s grandmother! Catherine Bruns excels at crafting quirky characters who will keep you in stitches.
GINGER SNAPPED TO DEATH is the eighth book in the Cookies & Chance series but can easily be read as a standalone. However, I can’t imagine anyone reading just one book of this series and not wanting to spend more time with Catherine Bruns’ wild and wacky characters! I can’t wait to dive back into some of the earlier books that I’ve missed and visit with these delightfully crazy characters! If you’re looking for a Christmas themed book filled with humor and a solid mystery, then look no further than GINGER SNAPPED TO DEATH!
Book Summary
From USA Today bestselling author Catherine Bruns comes a hilarious holiday whodunit!
It’s the most wonderful time of the year… Unless you’re Sally Muccio.
The full-time baker and sometime sleuth is ready to burst into song. She and her husband are expecting a bundle of joy, her sister’s wedding is just around the corner, and it’s Christmas, her favorite time of year. But when Sal’s the victim of a carjacking by Santa himself and a forgotten item links her to a murder, she doesn’t feel like ho-ho-hoing anymore.
Damian Ruger was a drug user, womanizer and first-class jerk. And unfortunately for Sal, she once had a connection to him in high school. The dough really hits the fan when her bakery's gingerbread cookies are found next to his dead body, and Sal's cake server is used as a murder weapon. Someone is trying to frame the expectant mother, but why? Sal has no choice but to try to clear her name...before she and the baby are singing Christmas carols in prison!
