**This is Book 35 in the Donut Hole Cozy Mystery Series**


When Heather Shepherd gets a call from her husband, Detective Ryan Shepherd, she’s sure she’s about to be called up to consult on yet another case.

Heather’s right of course, but the victim is someone she’s never heard of before. A new, and seemingly innocent, librarian who didn’t have any enemies. Or did she? Heather’s determined to get to the bottom of this one, and sets off on another sleuthin’ adventure armed with a box of her Pecan Nut Crunch Donuts, the help and hindrance of her bestie, Ames, and the drive to do the right thing for the residents of Hillside. But the victim’s past is shady, and the suspects are thin on the ground and all seem to have alibis, apart from one – a mysterious stranger who hangs out in the library too often.

Heather’s on the case, lack of evidence aside, and she has to solve the case or risk the killer escaping Hillside and moving on to terrorize parts unknown.

Heather is missing her favorite customer when her husband calls. This can't be good as he is the local police. Where is Eve and who is dead. What are the clues and can the case be solved fast. Love this quiet town that is not so quiet now.

I really enjoyed reading this book and I'm glad Susan decided to write about what happened to Ryan's cat. What I didn't like about this book is towards the end when they were trying to solve the murder they kept referring to the burglary as the murder and it was a bit confusing. However I did like this book and I like that the storyline that started at the beginning of the book tied in towards the end of the book. What I do miss is one of the characters in the earlier series and I feel like he needs to come back. That eould be Geoff Lawless. He was a pain but I kind of feel like he was a main character and I need to know what he's up too.

Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2017
Pecan Nut Crunch Murder is the 35th installment in Susan Gillard’s Donut Hole Cozy Mystery series. This is a clean, easy read and the mysteries are always interesting but this series is in serious need of editing and proofing. Heather Shepherd is worried when she realizes her friend and most loyal customer, Eva, hasn’t shown up at Donut Delights. When her husband, Detective Ryan Shepherd, calls her, she learns that Eva has witnessed the murder of one of the librarians at the library. While trying to identify the murderer, Heather is uncovers secrets and an unreported jewel theft.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good mystery
Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2017
I have voluntarily read this book for a honest review by receiving an advanced copy.

This story has many suspects and is a good clean read and I have read every book in this series. The character development is very well done.

However to be honest the editing errors are now just plain annoying. When you continually have glaring errors it makes me feel like the author doesn't care. I mean Jones said he didn't report the murder and someone else said that also, but it wasn't the murder he didn't report it was the robbery. Then there was a part that didn't .make any sense at all. I could go on and on. I hope the author will start taking this seriously.

Also LIls calls them mom and dad and I remember them talking about adopting her but I don't remember it ever happening.

3.0 out of 5 stars Another Murder in Hillside
Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2017
Another week -- another murder in the small Texas town of Hillside. As Heather is meeting with Amy and her joint venture partners, she receives a phone call about the murder of a librarian. Once again, it's up to Heather and her husband Ryan to solve the case.

This is a fun, entertaining series with likeable characters and interesting story lines. However, the series could definitely benefit from closer editing. Maybe after 35 murders and countless donuts eaten for every occasion, it's time to revamp.

4.0 out of 5 stars Is No Building Sacred?
Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2017
When Eva is late to her standing daily visit to Donut Delights and Heather receives a call from Ryan, she fears the worst. Thankfully, Eva is safe but is witness to the latest murder to rock Hillside; at the library, no less. With almost no physical evidence and practically nothing known about the victim, Heather forges ahead with her tablet in hand and her bestie by her side. As if this murder weren't enough, Kate Laverne, Heather's high school nemesis, is back in the picture only this time she's threatening to ruin a fair being planned by Heather and Col. Will she go through with it and, if so, will she succeed? I'm guessing we'll have to tune into the next book to find out.
