Senior sleuth Martha, and her twenty-something roomie Pru, are keen to try the new jelly donuts at the small supermarket in Gold Leaf Valley, California. The whole town has been raving about them, and they live up to the hype.
But when the raspberry jelly is changed to apricot, a customer dies, right in the middle of eating one!
Was it murder? Or an unfortunate accident? As president of the senior sleuthing club, Martha declares they must investigate!
Along with Teddy, Martha’s fluffy, white Coton de Tulear, they make a suspect list. Was it the delivery driver? The donut maker? Or the owner of the supermarket? Why would any of these people want to kill someone with a poisoned donut?
Meanwhile, Pru’s romance with Jesse, the newish detective in town, starts simmering slowly, and Mrs Snuggle, Father Mike’s Persian cat, has a play date with Teddy.
When Martha, Teddy, and Pru confront the person who’s been following them around town in a clunky brown car, they realize it’s the killer! Will they make it out of there alive, or can jelly donuts really be fatal?
This is a fun, clean, dog cozy mystery with female amateur sleuths – and Teddy, the adorable Coton de Tulear puppy!
