Shoofly Pie to Die (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781420867381)

SHOOFLY PIE TO DIE- A Pennsylvania Dutch Country Mystery "Humor, suspense, and wonderful characters laid against an atmospheric setting of Pennsylvania Dutch Country." Quilt maker, mystery reading Amish detective, Hannah --AKA Granny Hanny-Miller is once again drawn into murder and mystery, (the second in the Amish Country series, after In Dutch Again), in her newest mystery, Shoofly Pie to Die. After deciding she is through with the unsavory like business of investigating murder, circumstances pull Hannah away from the quilt-making into another brutal crime. She is an unwilling spectator at a killing. Detested antique dealer Denny Brody is found dead, stuffed into a pickle barrel, on a dilapidated covered bridge, and the only witness is Hannah. When the means of Denny's demise appears to be a poisoned shoofly pie Hannah made by Hannah, she and her formerly Amish granddaughter, Lancaster attorney, Caroline, are drawn deep into the investigation. As Hannah and Caroline struggle to clear Hannah before Caroline's upcoming wedding, the list of suspects grows. As they begin to close in, the killer strikes again, and it becomes clear to the murderer that Hannah must be his next target. Hannah's only weapons are courage and resourcefulness. Will they be enough to save herself and her family from the killer? Early Review Comments: "Shoofly Pie to Die" is a true mystery-lovers book. It has a complicated plot with a lot of action and an unexpected ending. I really couldn't put this one down." Another reader says: "Granny Hannah Miller is a wonderful character, direct, intelligent, and at ease in her culture. The plot is lively and moves along, holding ones interest from beginning to end."
