All Fudged Up: 01/29/23

All Fudged Up

All Fudged Up by Nancy CoCo and Vanessa Johansson (Narrator) (2013) is the start of the Candy-Coated mystery series. Allie McMurphy has returned to Mackinac Island to run her family's hotel and fudge shop.

She had hoped to work alongside her grandfather but he died suddenly. Now as she's trying to get ready for the summer season, she finds herself face to face with another dead body, her father's best friend and sometime rival.

This first mystery is secondary to setting the stage. It introduces the island, its history and its unique culture. That doesn't leave room for a complex mystery. That said, it's still a satisfying one to solve.

The second book is To Fudge or Not to Fudge (2014).

Four stars
