First in the Culinary Mystery series. Taking place in Colorado, Sadie Hoffmiller is a widow with two children in college. Sadie keeps herself very busy with cooking, taking care of her neighbors and being involved in lots of different charity work. A very kind-hearted soul. When a friend is murdered just down the street and her two year old son disappears, Sadie decides that she needs to help figure out this case, especially as one of the detectives seems intent only on pinning the murder on her. This is a very clean cozy, the main plot is good and it takes many twists and turns throughout. I surely had no idea who the killer was until Sadie did. The only trouble with Sadie is that she is the proverbial "it was dark in the cellar, but I knew I had to go down there..." type character. Delightful book and I look forward to reading the rest of the books in the series.
