In this episode of the Hallmark Mysteries and More podcast, hosts Art and Andrea take a deep dive into the latest Hannah Swensen Mystery: Sugar and Spice. While the duo loves a good costume party and a "closed-room" murder mystery, this installment left them craving more substance and a lot less predictability.
We break down everything from the extravagant costumes (shoutout to the mermaid look!) to the disappointing lack of screen time for Victor Webster. Is the series suffering from the loss of the original Murder She Baked energy, or is it just getting a little "stale"? We discuss the killer’s identity, the "mandrae-y" plot, and whether the chemistry between Hannah and Chad is actually heating up.
Plus, we touch on some literary news including Lacey Chabert's new series and our current favorite mystery reads. Stick around for our "Mystery Minute" and see if you agree with our 3/5 star rating!
