Description from the publisher:

A dangerous case. An incredible surprise. And chocolate pudding.

When Sabrina Carlson discovers that she's pregnant, she is over the moon. But her sense of elation doesn't last long. Shortly after she receives the news, a murder occurs in town. Unlike with previous cases, Sabrina is determined to stay out of the fray. Unfortunately, the universe has other ideas.

Will Sabrina be able to keep herself out of danger?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 

CHOCOLATE PUDDING WITH A SIDE OF MURDER is the eleventh book in the Daley Buzz Mysteries series.  Each cozy mystery will stand on its own, but the background story of Sabrina’s life is best enjoyed if you read them all in the order of release.

I love this family-friendly series, and this is a perfect contribution to the storyline.  I love David’s protectiveness of his newly growing family.

Having Sabrina trying to be more stand-back, means most of the story was David explaining what he found at work and her helping to brainstorm like a good little wifey at home.  This didn’t feel like the Sabrina I’ve come to know.   Of course, she couldn’t stay completely out of it…

Narration:  Another new voice for the Daley Buzz family, Stephanie Quinn did a great job.  Her voice is clear and consistent, and she maintains a good pace throughout.  I’m not particular fond of the voice she produced for David – he sounds too old – but that’s the problem with coming in to voice a series on the 11^th book.

Note:  While I received this book as a gifted audiobook copy, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
