The Agatha Award-winning author of The Body in the Big Apple dishes up âscrumptious suspenseâ as a toxic tragedy rattles a New England village (Boston Herald).
Ministerâs wife Faith Fairchild is excited about catering her churchâs restoration campaign kickoff at historic Ballou House. But when a beautiful young woman dies moments after finishing dessert, Faith is suddenly in serious trouble. Not only is her business in jeopardyâbut Alefordâs wagging tongues are suggesting that Faith herself laced the goodie with cyanide, having discovered her husband Tomâs perhaps overly pastoral interest in the victim. Faithâs world feels steeped in poison and never before have her amateur sleuthing skills been more crucialâespecially when another body is found in the moonlight carrying an unmistakable warning: youâre next!
