-Descripcion Original:

In this eighteenth mystery in the national bestselling Chocoholic series, a gang of crooks with a wicked sweet tooth wreaks havoc on the resort town of Warner Pier, and its up to Lee Woodyard torout the hungry rascals. A frantic late-night phone call from her right-hand woman Dolly Jolly brings Lee Woodyard to the scene of a break-in at the Warner Pier jewelry store next door to TenHuis Chocolade. To her shock, the suspect being held at gunpoint by police is Dollys boyfriend, Mike Westerly, who was recently hired as a night watchman specifically to prevent break-ins. Dolly hopes Lee can help straighten out the crazy misunderstanding. Even crazier? The thieves took nothing of value from the jewelry store, only swiping some snacks. Its another in a series of break-ins by burglars the media has dubbed the Cookie Monsters. Theyve been hitting shops selling everything from sunglasses to shoes but stealing only sweets: lollipops, cookies, even chewing gum! It all seems pretty funny--until the discovery of a dead body. With her friends and community in danger, Lee must stop one very sour killer before someone else comes to a bitter end.

And at least five mornings a week he does stop for a cup at the coffee bar at the Warner Pier Rest-Stop out on the interstate.And he does drink his coffee with the guys, an informal group of old and new friends, most of them craftsmen, who have drifted together over the years.Joe is six foot two, with dark hair, bright blue eyes, and the best shoulders in west Michigan. He has a dual career. Some days he goes to his boat shop and works on antique wooden boats, restoring them to their historic grandeur. On other days, he drives twenty-five miles to a midsized Midwestern city-Holland, Michigan-and there he practices law.But in either situation-boat shop or law office-he almost always stops to have coffee, and maybe a doughnut, with the group known as the coffee club. Its an informal group; Joe says one reason he likes it is that they dont have a constitution or bylaws.Im Lee McKinney Woodyard-early thirties, a shade under six feet tall, blond, and business manager for a company that makes luxury chocolates.One morning in early summer I needed to hitch a ride into Holland to get my van out of the garage, so I rode along with Joe.As we pulled into the Rest-Stop, Joe scanned the parking lo
