The Chocolate Cat Caper by Joanna Carl

I wanted a fun mystery novel and I got it.  This takes place in a small town in Michigan and involves chocolate and a murder.  The characters are easy to like and the story line was easy to follow.  Carl melded the folks in the story well enough, you knew enough but not too much.  She really kept you going on the who-done-it though.  A few times I thought I had it figured out but then questioned myself.  It was really fun to read and is the first in a series, so I am looking forward  to following these folks for a while.
