Murder of a Small-Town Honey
Denise Swanson
Immediately, Skye’s determination to keep a low profile as
the new school psychologist is assaulted by an army of
small-town busybodies and well-meaning family members who
can’t wait to pry into her life, dole out advice, and
volunteer her services in the Chokeberry Days festival.
And when the fair erupts in chaos and controversy – the Cow
Chip Bingo sabotaged and the jelly contest ruined – Skye
closes the even down altogether by finding a dead body. The deceased, who at first appears to be the elderly host
of a beloved children’s TV program, and a dear, sweet
thing, turns out to be quite different – a sexy young woman
with a wild past and more secrets that are in Aunt Minnie’s
Jell-O Surprise. And as if this stunning revelation
weren’t enough to intrigue Skye’s inner snoop, soon her own
brother is accused of the crime.
