Publisher Description
The Laundry Hag is nine months pregnant, five minutes away from a meltdown, and officially done with drama.
Maggie's only goal is to deliver her baby so she can finally see her toes again. But when a neighbor goes missing, her husband Neil begs her to stay out of the fray and focus on her breathing. Maggie has never been good at following orders—especially when her curiosity is more demanding than her stretch marks.
What starts as a little neighborly nosiness turns chilling when the missing man is found stuffed inside his own freezer. To make matters worse, his wife and newborn have vanished into thin air. Now, Maggie is racing against her own biological clock to find them.
Between navigating extreme family dysfunction, dodging an overprotective husband, and investigating a crime involving industrial-strength juicers, Maggie is about to find out that the killer might be closer to home than she ever imagined. The laundry can wait—because justice won't.
Bun in the Oven is the fifth entry in the Misadventures of the Laundry Hag mystery series. If you like relatable characters, family dysfunction, and laugh-out-loud humor, then you'll love USA Today bestselling author Jennifer L. Hart's captivating caper.

Customer Reviews
Grabs you from the first
[I voluntarily read and reviewed this book after the author gifted it to me pre-release]
“No, you’re right. I can’t make waves, can’t put a toe out of line, can’t ask for anything that I want or need because it’ll make life too uncomfortable for everyone else.”
Baby X seems to be in charge for this episode. Nine plus month pregnant Maggie is still trying to be everything to everyone, until her next door neighbor gives birth and everything seems to hit everywhere all at once. Add a teenager and a tween to the mix and a mother-in-law who thinks she's being helpful, and an odd assortment of neighbors, police and a dog the size of the house and you are bound to be entertained and intrigued as the story unfolds.
This, without any doubt, is the best of the now five Laundry Hag books. Warning, don't start this book unless you have nothing else on your plate because you will not want to stop reading until it is done!
