Vanilla Cream Murder Susan Gillard

When Heather Shepherd starts another donut-filled week she doesn't expect to see Roadkill Rodney in her store and is pleasantly surprised at the friendly face. But surprise turns to horror when Roadkill knocks on her door in the middle of the night and reveals that he's just found his new girlfriend, Norma, dead in her store. Heather can't help but investigate once again and is drawn into a mystery with so many loose ends she struggles to pull it all together. She sets out to solve the case with her best friend and co-investigator in tow, a box of Vanilla Cream Donuts to sweeten the deal and her unending desire for justice. But things are never simple in not-so-sleepy Hillside, where the suspects are many and the evidence, this time, is few. Apart from a curious murder weapon and a partial print, Heather, Ames and ever faithful hubby Detective Shepherd are in the dark. Heather has to get to the bottom of this one or the killer may strike again and much closer to home.
