This is the first book by Lee Hollis that I have ever read. Most times I can read a book in the middle of a cozy mystery series and just jump right in.. This one I would definitely recommend to start this series from the beginning.. I did enjoy this book quite alot, but I think I would have liked it even more if I had read all of the other books. 
I loved all of the recepies strewn throughout the story, I def. want to try a couple of them! 
The story starts out with a new couple moving into town. Trudy is going to be running a new food truck, and her husband Ted is going to be taking over as the new minister when the current one retires. 
Ted and Trudy really hit it off with Hayley and Bruce and they seem to become fast friends. First Trudy gets poisoned with insecticide, then during the annual Halloween Party she is found dead inside of her food truck. 
When her death is ruled as a homicide, Hayley decideds to start investigating on her own. 
There are no end to the suspects that could have done it.. We have the owner of the other food truck in town, who was very upset someone was coming in to possibly take her customers. Also the current reverand who seems to be smitten with her, or his jealous wife who saw what her husbands been upto.. Or the greiving husband, whose marriage wasn't as perfect as it seemed.. 
I thought the mystery solving was really good, I had no idea until a bit before it was revealed who the killer actually was. 
I would definitely read more of this author and especially this series, but I would start at the beginning first lol..
