She jumps right into solving it before going to her birthday party at the ice cream shop. On the way home, her father drives past a doughnut shop and it triggers a thought for Hat.

It is fast paced and written in the first-person point of view. The characters are developed, and the story moves quickly. I read it in one sitting. It was a wonderful story and I look forward to reading more from this author.
