Synopsis: Nothing is what it seems in these ten &“deliciously subtle . . . Short, snappy mysteries that are full of unexpected plot twists&” (Long and Short Reviews). As the old saying goes, it&’s the quiet ones you have to watch out for. And the unassuming characters in From Hay to Eternity have one thing in common—they&’re ready to go to unusual lengths to get what they want. From a family of vegetable farmers to a more-than-meets-the-eye beverage maker, the stories will take you into the minds of the overlooked and unseen. Ignore them at your own risk. In &“Superstition,&” a woman lives every day like it&’s her last—and not without good reason. &“The Chicken Pot Pie Fiasco&” shows just how badly Thanksgiving can go awry with too many cooks in the kitchen. A day of shopping and lunch takes a frightening turn for a young couple in &“Waffling on Cherokee Street.&” And in the title story, the fate of a farming family is changed forever by a seemingly innocent Halloween hayride.
