Gingerbread is so tasty, well this book was anyway

I just loved this book when it was released on kindle, so was really pleased to see it come out as an audio book. It was just as I remembered a fun, quirky, humorous adventure that will have you laughing out loud, well it did me. This is book seven in the Pineapple Port Mysteries and if you are starting with this book, then where have you been? You have missed out on a wild adventure and I suggest you start at the beginning and work your way through the series. Especially is you like fun characters that find themselves in all sort of situations and quirky cases that don't always turn out like you expect and all the characters you have come to love over the series makes an appearance. I loved the whole idea for d this plot line, a group of gingerbread men running around town sounded funny and it didn't disappoint. The story does jump around in the time line as the story unfolds and is explained but I think it works well. I can't wait for the next book to come out as this one left on a cliff hanger.
Sheriff Frank calls in private detective Charlotte to help on a strange case. A man dressed as a gingerbread man has been murdered by having an elf shoved down his throat and surround by every thing Christmas and to make certain he was dead his Christmas tree was set on fire. Charlotte knows he was running a Christmas parade to raise money for charity, so starts there but the more she asks questions the more things don't seem right. It is only after four gingerbread men try to steal the dead man's furniture, a Christmas one of a kind hand made bureau that the puzzle starts to fall into place. It's great being a deputy, even if you don't get to wear a hat. At the same time Charlotte boyfriends ex girlfriend is having trouble in court and she needs Charlottes help proving that someone is tampering with witnesses, Charoltte is suspicious of her motives and is reluctant to help but Stephanie dangles a nice big carrot that is just to good to ignore. Can Charlotte solve both cases?
I like the narrator as she does some very good voices for the characters which bring them to life before your eyes.
