Alison Sweeney (“Love & Jane,” “Days of Our Lives”) returns as everyone’s favorite baker-turned amateur sleuth Hannah Swensen, and reunites with her “The Wedding Veil” trilogy co-star Victor Webster for “One Bad Apple: A Hannah Swensen Mystery,” premiering on Hallmark Movies & Mysteries later this year. Sweeney wrote the script, which is based on the novel Apple Turnover Murder by Joanne Fluke, and is executive producer on the movie.
Hannah Swensen has been asked to teach a baking class at the college in town, but her equipment is tampered with causing an explosion that the fire department rules an accident. Soon, a colleague ends up dead and Hannah begins to put together the puzzle of the mysterious circumstances surrounding the murder. Hannah leans on her friends and family to collect the breadcrumbs of foul play and put them together, and meets a different side of law and order when Lake Eden’s prosecuting attorney Chad Norton (Webster) enters her life.
“I’ve always loved working with Victor – from our years in daytime to our work together on ‘The Wedding Veil,” shared Sweeney. “When writing the script and developing this movie, I knew he’d be a great addition to the Hannah Swensen family and I am thrilled that he said yes.”
“The great chemistry Alison and Victor had in ‘The Wedding Veil’ trilogies made the decision to bring him into this world an easy one,” remarked Laura Gaines, Director of development, at Hallmark Media. “It will be fun for viewers to see a different side of the legal process as Hannah learns the recipe for a strong case.”
“One Bad Apple: A Hannah Swensen Mystery” is from Lighthouse Pictures in association with Looking Glass Productions. Alison Sweeney, Craig Baumgarten, Jamie Goehring and Shawn Williamson are executive producers. The movie is produced by Kevin Leslie. Shannon Kohli directs from a script by Sweeney, based on the book Apple Turnover Murder by Joanne Fluke.
