Part 1 of the Apple Orchard Cozy Mystery series
From the oven it came...smelling like apples, cinnamon, and love.
Everyone adores Miss May, except the guilty.
In a small town where neighbors know each other, lawn chairs come out in the spring; if you sit around chatting long enough, someone brings you pie; and there are still skeletons in every closet.
Luckily for Pine Grove, Miss May has a nose for crime.
The body was found face-down in the orchard.
Chelsea's not sure crime-fighting is her strong suit. She's up at her Aunt May's farm, recovering from heartbreak, after all, trying to forget the guy who left her at the altar. But when cousin Maggie's fiancé is murdered, Chelsea's own botched wedding seems like less of a big deal.
Who would have killed him?
The handsome and charming Detective Wayne thinks it's Maggie.
Miss May and Chelsea know he's wrong, but they don't have proof. There's a killer on the loose in their little town, and they're determined to find the culprit.
Who had motive?
