A delightful new cozy mystery from USA Today bestselling author Amanda Flower!
There's fowl play afoot on the farm
Shiloh Bellamy has saved her family's farm from financial ruin—but now what? She's barely scraping by on the farm's new organic business model and the fall festival she organized to drum up business comes to a screeching halt when the body of a prominent townswoman is discovered underneath a scarecrow in a nearby field. Worst of all, the evidence points to Shiloh's childhood best friend, Kristy, as the prime suspect.
Between cooking up delicious treats made with her farm's produce, convincing her cantankerous father to let her do things her own way, and dealing with a newcomer in town who could be serious competition for her customers, Shiloh doesn't have time to wade into a murder investigation. But with a killer on the loose and suspicious activity circling closer and closer to Shiloh and the people she loves, she realizes there's nothing to do but roll up her sleeves and get down to the dirty work of finding the killer and clearing Kristy's name once and for all.
This book is perfect for cozy mystery readers and fans of Kate Carlisle, Denise Swanson, and Bree Baker!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Flower's entertaining sequel to 2021's From Farm to Trouble opens on a beautiful October day in Cherry Glen, Mich., where the Fall Daze festival is in full swing. Former Hollywood producer turned organic farmer Shiloh Bellamy devised the event to bring visitors to the farm and to test new recipes for baked goods. Shiloh's father, however, isn't pleased by the hundreds of strangers milling around, and Shiloh, too, begins to doubt the wisdom of the festival once she starts running out of food for the hungry tourists. Finding more muffins turns out to be the least of her worries when an unpopular local is found dead at the foot of one of the decorative scarecrows set up in a nearby field. Worse still, the body has been strangled with the eye-catching scarf belonging to Shiloh's best friend, the manager of the popular Cherry Glen Farmers Market. Shiloh must once again turn sleuth to catch the real culprit. Flower efficiently establishes the who, what, where, and how right at the beginning. Cozy fans will hope to see a lot more of the earnest, quick-witted Shiloh.
