The Silence of the Flans by Laura Bradford

4.0

I really love the idea of an emergency dessert squad....so to find out it was in jeopardy during this book actually made me sad. (And my biggest disappointment with this one was that there were barely any emergency calls. I know that was all a part of the story...but that why I love the series). I was frustrated with many of the characters in this story, but in a way that I'm sure the author contrived on purpose. I love Winnie's elderly friends and they were constantly cracking me up. I can't tell if a real love triangle is forming, but if it does I am absolutely rooting for Master Sergeant Hottie. Jay's lack of communication DROVE ME NUTS and caused so many problems that I am annoyed with him. As for the mystery, I definitely had the pieces in place before Winnie did, which means the author did a good job of subtly dropping enough clues. The ending was actually kind of anti-climatic, which is pretty unique for a cozy mystery novel. This is a sweet and fun series that I am looking forward to continuing.
