No ones happy when wealthy Felicity Asbury names herself director of the local arts festival. After shes found dead, all evidence points to candy shop owner Abby Shaw, who must put aside her sweets to discover the twisted killer. Includes candy recipes.

The author certainly starts things off in a burst of energy! As I read, I recalled hectic days, when the entreaties of others so easily derailed me from my own pursuits. Neat trip to my own past, while reading a mystery: thanks!

I read the intro in Suzanne's newsletter, and boy does it sound fun!

Wow. . . off to rousing start. Can't wait to see how the rest of the book goes. I think I'm going to have to reserve this one.

I like the mob's attitude. If Felicity stays, we pull out, [ and Jeb doesn't get reelected by the way].
