One Bad Apple: A Hannah Swensen Mystery (TV Movie 2024). | TV-PG

“Hannah Swensen Mysteries has consistently been one of my three favorite mysteries on Hallmark Movies and Mysteries, along with Aurora Teagarden (the Candace Cameron Bure version) and Mystery 101. This entry has Hannah teaching a baking class at the local community college where she collaborates with literature professor Bradford Ramsey…who not only seems enamored with Hannah, but ends up dead quite literally stabbed in the back with one of Hannahu0026#39;s own knives. This unfortunately puts Hannah on the suspect list.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis entry introduces us to Lake Edenu0026#39;s own all business u0026quot;I donu0026#39;t have a sweet toothu0026quot; county prosecuting attorney, Chad Norton (played by the suave Victor Webster). Most of the cast favorites have returned like Hannahu0026#39;s beloved mom who is played so delightfully by Barbara Niven and our favorite partner-in-crime and local dentist Norman (played by the consistently wonderful Gabriel Hogan). There were some noticeable absences like Hannahu0026#39;s brother in law police officer Bill, but probably more noticeable is Hannahu0026#39;s fiancé the beloved detective Mike, who has been played from the very first film by Cameron Mathison. The story was given that Mike went to Quantico to join the FBI? I am really sad to see Cameron Mathison go, as I really like him as an actor and thought he and Alison Sweeney had amazing chemistry together. On a side note I did enjoy Alison Sweeney and Victor Webster in the Wedding Veil series of movies, they were well matched and it will be interesting to see what develops here.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe series is based on the cosy mysteries written by Joanne Fluke, but this film was actually written by Alison Sweeney herself. The mystery was decent, but what really keeps this amongst my favorites…if not my favorite, is the camaraderie amongst the cast being lead by Alison Sweeney herself. Barbara Niven is not only lovely, but lends so much great comedy to this series. This entry has Delores deciding to be an private investigator…think big hats, sun glasses and trench coats.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eHighly recommend this fun mystery series to all the cosy mystery fans out there.”
