Honored by RT Book Reviews as a “Living Legend”, Fluke’s most recent book, “Double Fudge Brownie Murder,“ was her ninth New York Times bestselling hardcover. Like Hannah Swensen, Joanne Fluke was born and raised in a small town in rural Minnesota, where a traffic jam was defined as two cars stuck behind a tractor. She managed to shovel her way out of the snow and now lives in California. The 19th Hannah Swensen mystery, “Wedding Cake Murder,“ will be released in March 2016.
